Lanzarote Departure
Returned to UK from a holiday in Lanzarote this week in a B737-200 (or maybe 100 series) and had to refuel en-route at Faro. The Skipper implied that this was because we departed Arrecife rwy 03 as opposed to 21.
As a simple area ATCO, just wondered why we could have carried enough fuel from a rwy 21 departure but not rwy 03.
Cheers,
