Yeah thought it would be too simple, is there an easy way to get an approx amount?
I'm writing a very basic airline simulation game, fuel cost / fuel burn rates impact this a lot. So not used for anything close to operating performance but just a way of getting a number which is somewhat realistic for an artificial world
