Not sure if I'm reading this wrong but I've plotted a route with a starting level of 100 ltr and the fuel plan (attached) shows a total of 53.5 made up from:

Taxi/Take off: 8.0
Cruise: 32.1
Diversion: 0.0
Holding Time: 6.9
Landing: 5.0
Contingency: 1.6
Total: 53.5

Looking at the PLOG the fuel required matches the fuel plan with 53.5.  However the fuel remaining (FuelR) on landing is shown as 59.9 which is only 40.1 less than the starting level of 100.  The only way to make this FuelR match is to assume:
FuelR = Planned Fuel - Taxi/Takeoff - Cruise, ie 59.9 = 100 - 8 - 32.1.

So FuelR does not include fuel for landing, is that right?  To confirm I do have the route landing at Mona.
