Which value represents the Normal Landing Fuel?

Normal Landing Fuel is the quantity of fuel planned to be on board when you reach the destination and are ready to land, including the safety margins for the approach and any potential go-arounds. It represents the planned fuel remaining at the moment of touchdown, after accounting for en route consumption and required reserves, but before taxi. In C-5 practice limits, this value is set around 142,600 pounds, which is why that option fits as the Normal Landing Fuel. The other numbers correspond to different planning values (larger trip/contingency totals or other stages) and do not represent the fuel planned to remain at landing.
