company man?

A bit harsh ayc73? The way you say "Company Man" makes it seem like a bad thing to be! TB goes on to partly qualify his answer. And in any case confusion has crept in. Contingency fuel is not the same thing as landing fuel. TB seems to be talking about landing fuel plus judicious extra and not contingency which he can burn up en route. Maybe if we saw his fuel ladder it would make more sense. At the mo' he is suggesting a fuel burn based on 10 tonnes per hour. Anyway I plied my trade for thirty years and was always proud to say which company I worked for. Even after 17000hrs. Anyway the question is contingency fuel, how much and not how happy.
