fuel savings
Hi,would be glad if someone could enlighten me on this topic.
Just how much fuel does a wide body saves when track shortening is provided? I need to know the approximate amount saved in US$$$ so that we controllers can roughly help out whenever direct tracks are available.
Is it legally ok for acft to accept direct tracks?
I am particularly interested in enroute acft. However I do also welcome fuel savings on ground and approach sectors.
Thanks for the replies.
