holding speed, for the aeroplane, at 1 500 ft above the planned destination aerodrome.
destination alternate fuel means the amount of fuel required to enable an aeroplane to do the following in a sequence:
 (a) perform a missed approach at the destination aerodrome;
 (b) climb to the expected cruising altitude;
 (c) fly the expected routing to the destination alternate aerodrome;
 (d) descend to the point where the expected approach is initiated;
 (e) conduct the approach;
 (f) land at the destination alternate aerodrome.
established, for the definition of holding fuel in this section, means any of the following:
 (a) established by the aeroplane's manufacturer, and published in the aeroplane's flight manual;
 (b) established by the use of a fuel consumption monitoring system;
 (c) established by the aeroplane's operator and published in the operator's exposition, along with:
 (i) the relevant data and methodology used; or
 (ii) references to another accessible location of the data and methodology used.
final reserve fuel means the calculated amount of fuel:
 (a) that is required to fly an aeroplane mentioned in column 1 of an item in the following table, calculated as follows:
 (i) for the kind of flight mentioned in column 2 of the item—for the period of the flight mentioned in column 3 of the item; and
 (ii) at 1 500 ft above aerodrome elevation in ISA conditions; and
 (iii) at holding speed; and
 (iv) at the aeroplane's estimated weight on arrival at the destination alternate aerodrome, or planned destination aerodrome if no destination alternate aerodrome is required for the flight; and
 (b) that is usable fuel remaining on completion of the final landing at the aerodrome.
