The calorimetric energy of cosmic ray showers as measured by fluorescence detectors must be corrected to the size of missing energy. Contribution presents a fast method of calculation of the corresponding correction factors obtained from simulated fluorescence profiles in Monte Carlo program CONEX. The influence of the choice of the hadronic interaction model and primary particle type to the size of calculated missing energy is shown. An idea is discussed, how to possibly decrease this influence using the information about the amount of muons on the ground.
