While reading "Airline Cargo Management" March 2005 issue I have noticed the article on how airlines are reducing the fuel burn. Here is the small extraction:
[Arrow Air / Miami]
...Arrow has lowered its fuel consumption fleetwide by 12% over the past year, says Visconti. This has been achieved by measures such as two-engine ferry flights with its four-engined DC-8, expedited taxiing times at airports, restricted use of APU on its DC-10s, blah-blah-blah..
2-engine ferry flights on DC-8?
What does it exactly mean?
