Our latest "fuelburn league table" showed inverse correlation between the on-block amount as percentage of company minimum reserves and the burn as percentage of estimated plog burn.
Oh, not only was that league table our latest, it was also (so far) our last.
There are a lot of situations that 600 kg. extra can get you out of, situations that accountants and financial analysts don't know anything about. Now, I don't go around telling accountants how to do their job - because i know d!ck all about it. If the accountants would extend the same courtesy to me, we would get on fine.
Jambo Buana, according to your profile, your occupation is "airline pilot" and your interest is "flight safety". If I add those two, I arrive at a complete lack of understanding of how you can think that JAR-OPS1 CMR has a lot of fat build into it and that it is time fuel tankering was taken away from the captain. If you could solve that mystery, I think some might be more favourably inclined to your proposal.
That being said, I agree with the benefits of fuel efficient operation, and I'm just as upset as anybody when I take over an aircraft with 2,5T @ a station where fuel index is 150 and previous 2 hr. sector only had 50% loadfactor. I always ask people to put down the reason why they cary extra fuel in writing - on the plog. And when weather is dandy, runways are plentiful & not NOTAMed to death, I cary just around minimum fuel. So on those days, I save the company money. On the sh!tty days, I cary a lot more, and again save the company money, this time by preventing a diversion, or diverting so early that we are @ the front of the queue to get out again.
To sum it up - I help the company by operating fuel-efficiently whenever possible. In return, no questions are asked when I cary minimum + 2T. They know I have a damn good reason to do it. That's the way it works @ our outfit, and it works a treat!
Anybody take my fuel discretion away, and I'll happily move to the RHS & fly for the rest of my career as an F/O. Or I might quit flying and become an accountant?
Empty (and believe me - that's just a name!)
