So Unit fuel panel says:

1. 13hrs 9min total fuel
2. 11hrs 45min to bingo fuel
3. 8min 36 flying time

So I think I understand that the plane has 13hrs (Numbers here just rough for sake of discussion)of total fuel, with 11hrs of mission fuel, and 2 hrs of reserve fuel @26.5/minute of burn.

But why does it say only 8 minutes of fly time?

**edit: running the latest beta

That's time since the aircraft took off. It is useful to know because quick turn-around has limitations on flight time.

ok, that makes sense...the wording didn't seem to convey that to me.
