RAK...

The video you posted is the one I was looking for. However, the one posted by Selfin is much more up to date and wide ranging - definitely a useful watch.

Not really - you are comparing different aircraft types, and therefore different operating costs so it's not as simple as just saving 25%.

Don't fly AB and haven't heard of that. What is it exactly? I don't regularly see them with flaps / slats deployed though, so it was definitely out of the ordinary. It was +26c by the way.
