Just curious...martini's usually give me these wild ideas.

Why UPS doesn't redispatch me on EVERY flight is beyond me. Not only could we save fuel, but we could carry more rubber dog shizha too. We were redispatching for a while, when our initial fuel conservation kickoff occurred two years ago, but I haven't sen a redispatch flight plan for quite a while now....

We're too busy making money to worry about the paltry millions we'd save through redispatching!
