RE: Urban Calculation
Ideally and I know and accept its a guestimate but I reckon we need enough fuel to go the longest route to your BOL times three, plus fuel for patroling, fuel for possibly a return journey etc as well, Thats a shit load of diesel ( I dont want to go the derv / petrol argument again today)
