BINGO is measured from which to which?

• A. Destination Airfield, Alternate Airfield
• B. Alternate Airfield, Destination Airfield
• C. Takeoff Airfield, Destination Airfield
• D. Destination to Departure Airfield

Answer: (A)

BINGO fuel is the minimum fuel you must have on board at the destination to be able to fly to a suitable alternate airport, including reserves. That means it’s the fuel needed to go from the destination airfield to the alternate airfield (not the takeoff leg or the leg back to departure). This focuses on what you’d need if you can’t land at the destination and must divert, ensuring you can reach an alternate with the required reserves.
