these are not leaders, but gob sh@tes. As the previous mentioned you'll get the usually clowns that will push the envelope just to brown nose their future careers. Its false economy. I remember many moons ago in August we had 2 flights to JFK....wx was cavok but we all Know TZs can spring up so we took 20 mins extra.....the other guy took FPL. He was ahead of us. Checking into Moncton ATC we hear them diverting in KBOS due delays at JFK due TZ. We had the juice to go to ALB and then down the hudson valley and slip into 22R.
Our fuel hero meets us many hrs later in NY after discommoding numerous pax, costing the co. 1000's on ldg fees and still tries to justify himself. It would take a hell of a long time to add up the costs of tankering to the cost of the diversion. Big picture stuff.....then there's the other boffuns that carry extra extra juice ,,,,there's a happy medium out there.
