[Chuck Jensen]

Andy, you shouldn't jump over essential steps.  First, you have to go out and mine some ore.

	My question wasn't about how conservative a person should be when
flight planning, I just didn't know how accurate the fuel placards needed to
be, or really what they were used for. I didn't realize that builders
intentionally put less fuel on the placards than the plane actually held so
that there would be a "secret reserve."  

Thats one thing about the reflector, ask what time it is, and someone will
explane how to build a watch, and that will be debated.
