The missing energy is a part of primary particle energy which cannot be detected by the fluorescence detectors. It can be calculated only from Monte Carlo simulations and it is thus affected by a choice of the high energy interaction model and also by the mass of the primary particle. The influence of high energy interaction model and of the mass of the primary particle to the size of the missing energy is described. A new idea, how to make the correction for the missing energy more independently on the assumed primary particle type and the choice of the high energy interaction model is introduced.
