"Fule?" No, there is no such congressional *COMMITTEE*, you
delusional moron.

One would think that with on a long haul interconinental
flights (say more then 6 hours) that the plane would ALWAYS
depart with a full tank of fuel.

Error: thinking not in evidence.

A modern jet airplane carries enough fuel to fly the range of its
intended flight, plus some for safety margin. This doesn't always
mean that the plane departs with a full tank. You're an idiot.

Well, some airlines are being taken to task for taking off
without sufficient fuel reserves, and THAT is quite
un-nerving.

I am up here in America to broadcast a couple of the pope's
masses here.

No, you're not. You're nowhere near the USA.


I DO own and operator my own online radio network
and I AM here through Sunday. It is a little un-nerving
to think that I may board a JFK to PPT flight that would
take off with anything less than a full fuel load.




That's because you're too fucking stupid to understand what has been
explained to you already. All you need to do is select "unlimite fuel" or
equivalent to whatever game you are playing and you'll have nothing to
worry about.
