The report states:

1.17.1.9. Fuel Policy

The Operator's fuel policy objectives are as follows:

a) A sufficient quantity of fuel is carried for the intended flight with a safe margin for contingencies.

b) The range capability of the aircraft is fully exploited.

c) The uneconomic carriage of fuel is minimised.

If you were operating under this fuel policy how might it affect your daily decisions, year in year out, on how much extra fuel to carry?
