With fuel prices at current levels you would think it would be prudent to positively engage the people in the position of controlling the burning of this expensive resource.

As a line driver on the 73 I quite often burn 300-500kg less than the minimum fuel burn as planned by QF on any one sector. This is more than often, in dollar terms a value greater than my wage on that particular sector.

I could also burn a months wage worth of extra fuel in just a few sectors if I was p*ssed off with how management were treating me.
