Hey guys.....Think about this for a minute.

The list price Vs the contract discount price means nothing. The EXCISE is on every litre.....so to fill your B748 it will be $14.5K more.

So my rough mental maths at $12.5K per load on a B744 and probably the A380 is about right.

peterc, have you noticed the alarmist AGW folk have vannished up their own hole in the ozone layer in recent years.

If you are worried about our kids, take the carbon tax now, invest it and hand it back to my kids in 20 years when this phoney crap is seen for what it is. Hang on, in 20 years I hope to be around to collect it.
