too close for comfort-easy lands with 18m fuel

Kiris; You wonder "how close" ? I have the answer, as per the thread title ;" Too close for comfort" in countless occasions where many 'Operators' think they are being clever.

In my Cowboy outfit, walked away from one of many chop rides and playing the fuel policy, I quietly asked the FO who congratulated me on my performance if he was aware of the fuel state. He beamed with pride and responded" Yeah, we are , probably, the most fuel efficient operator in Europe.

Ex Mill Chopper who still thought that there was a war on also said " That's the way we do it, well done. Few more sectors (chop-rides) and you'll be ok. I was well on the path to better things anyway.
