Delusions of grandeur? Are you kidding? Traf has a very valid point. It helps explain why a KA flight from two hours away diverts after a couple of holding patterns because either: A, the snowflake in the cockpit didn't have the foresight or balls to put on the appropriate amount of fuel or B, the snowflake in OPS didn't put the appropriate amount of fuel on the flight plan so that snowflake A didn't have to divert with FPF. Heaven help us all.
