April 13, 200620 yr For those interested, I found this information from Boeing on fuel management, etc. It's very interesting. The link is to a .PDF document which I found by accident. http://www.iata.org/NR/ContentConnector/CS..._Cons_Nov04.pdfIt should be helpful when planning those long flights.J.Sample
