The reason for asking. On long range flights that are ETP1D critical. If after an IDG disconnect the APU is started to provide a second generator source. Is this APU fuel usage going to be offset by the engine fuel saving with IDG disconnected and prevent a fuel diversion. Has anyone any experience on this matter?

Delta Sierra's please do not respond!
