While were all sitting on the ground waiting for the act of god to go away, I would be grateful if some COMMERCIAL pilots (both recent and retired or unemployed) to answer some of these 'environmental' questions listed below for some research (private research, not public).
1)Are you aware of any 'fuel efficient' or 'environmental' departments within your airline? If so, please state of which departments your airline consists of.
2)Are there any policies or regulations that would make you operate the aircraft in a more fuel efficient way? If so, How? (e.g. SOPs, Ground Power).
3)Do you think any of the modern aircraft technological advances have increased fuel efficiency and flight safety? (E.g. EFIS and TCAS)
4)Are there any flying techniques that you often use to increase fuel efficiency/save fuel? (E.g. Gliding Approach) If you do please state how it is manourvered.
5)Do you usually comprise passenger comfort for fuel efficiency? If so, Please give an example of when you did.
6)What fuel efficient techniques do you use on the ground or during taxi? (E.g. APU, Ground Power, Air Start).
7)Do you think fuel savings from your flights could lead to a future salary increase? Please state how and why?
Thank you for your time guys, Take Care
