2. INDUSTRY ISSUES
Fuel conservation is an issue for many groups in commercial aviation. Motivation to deal with the subject comes not only from the desire to minimize fuel expenditure, but also from the wish to address environmental concerns. After all, in simplistic terms, the best way to reduce any emissions that may be produced during flight is to burn less fuel.
