Fuel etc

Hi Guys

Off topic slightly (totally agree with whats been said about bouncy castle HQ though) however did a Perth recently and picked up the jet having burned 1000kgs of apu fuel on the ground due to no gpu! Apparently this is because faulty towers can't decided if it's cheaper to buy locally or go somewhere else and ship it! Go figure....2 *345 flights a day = 2000kgs * 7 days = $LOTS.

Still glad to see Ed's on the case.

safe trips
