Good idea, here's hoping it works out.

The article raises a question for me though. It states that 73 million litres of fuel is only enough for BA's Heathrow fleet, I presuem for a year.

So I'm wondering how much fuel does an airline go through in a year? I realise this questions relates to how many of what type of aircraft etc, very subjective question, so can anyone anwser for Qantas, and perhaps break it down by type?
