Yes, used for training all this week. Two sessions each day. Fuel loaded was 76 tonne, so very light obviously. Burnt 12 tonne each session, so average burn of 24 tonne each day.Training crew for an Asian carrier.

I guess they are never totally empty though. I guess at half full, 100,000 litres may be quite a few tankers and trailers though, at least two trucks and trailers?

Ok, haven't posted any images since last year so better get things rolling soon. Saw this as I drove past yesterday. Thought the titles were a bit different than what I thought they used to be.  |
