Current Behavior: In the EFB Load Planner Fuel Calculator with an alternate distance of 0, setting a contingency fuel percentage does not change the fuel load. with contingency fuel but no alternate distance image no contingency fuel image

Expected Behavior: Contingency fuel calculations are based on trip fuel (origin to destination) not alternate distance : https://www.eurocockpit.be/sites/default/files/2017-06/Fuel%20policy%20-%20safety%20and%20consistency%2C%20ECA%202017_1.pdf

13608 kg (30000 lb) is the minimum fuel. Apparently with 200 nm cruise, calculated fuel is lower, than this number. Check with longer distances.
