Of course there's an extra cost in fuel if yr further away.

I'm not trying to say that land-based ops 1000miles away are morer efficient than carrier-based ones 100nm away, merely trying to point out that sortie rate is irrelevant.

jamesdevice - yr correct, that's what I meant by it's not the whole story.
