TennShadow Posted April 16, 2010 Report Share Posted April 16, 2010 I'm using live fuel prices and all I can say is "ouch". As of the time of this posting my VA has 79 flights recorded with over $3,000,000.00 spent in fuel! Thank goodness I have plenty of "virtual passengers" flying with us or I'd go bankrupt. Sorry, just had to post this little bit of silliness. Keith Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AFVA | Mitchell Posted April 16, 2010 Report Share Posted April 16, 2010 How to reduce fuel costs: - Only use the amount of fuel you NEED! ?(Extra fuel is extra money down the drain) IFR Example: - Fuel to destination airport + fuel to alternate from destination airport + 10% more fuel = How much fuel you need - Use aircraft with non-fuel guzzling engines (Now we are getting realistic) - Use altitude! - Don't fly at 100% thrust for the whole flight! - Get information from your FMC (If your aircraft dosn't have an FMC you can use vasFMC 2) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
