Fuel calculation ub SD already has several items. We recently discussed the misleading "Reserve"-item which in fact means "Fuel to alternate".
In addition, I suggest to put more Information in the fuel calculation Segment - in SD itself and the printable flight log also.
The prototype is the german LBA VFR flight planning form.

‌‌‌
For those not familiar with german names:
Reiseflug                           cruise (time and fuel needed)
Steigflug                           Climb‌‌‌
Zuschläge                        Addons ....
Anlassen und Rollen      ... Startup andTaxi
An- und Abflug               ... Departure and Arrival
Ausweichflugplatz           Alternate
Reserve                          Contingency
Mindest-Kraftstoffbedarf      Fuel needed
Extra Kraftstoff                    Excess fuel (?)
Kraftstoff-Vorrat                   Fuel on board (Calculates Maximum Flight Time)
Sichere Flugzeit                   Safe Flight-Time                 Max Flight Time minus 30m‌in.

The middle column is always time (hh:mm), right column is Fuel in ltrs/gals‌‌
