Journalist seeking to talk to 737-800 pilots

Hello, I am a specialist journalist from the publication NK News (www.nknews.org).

I am working on an extensive sanctions-focused investigation surrounding North Korea and jet fuel. As part of my research, I am very eager to speak to Boeing 737-800 pilots who are familiar with refueling and fuel needs on short-haul runs.

I have several technical questions I'd like to privately ask in this regard, in addition to gaining some reference and insight on a number of photos I've assembled as part of my research.

Above all, I want to ensure I get the facts right and ensure that the article we finally publish is accurate and of a very high quality.

Looking forward to talking to pilots here!

Thanks,

C.

Well I’d guess he’s wanting fuel burns on sectors to see if someone’s 738s are defuelling in NK to get around the sanctions.

Plenty of drivers on here, as are engineers and other very knowledgeable folks.
However, none known by real names and able and willing to shed anonymity.
Unfortunately for poster, PM not available until he's an established user of the forum.
Only way for him to get in touch with many it appears is for him to facilitate other means of contact.

Got photos essentially of Air China planes connected to Air Koryo fuel tankers in Pyongyang on multiple occasions. Looking for some help in figuring out what is going on!
