...wot is that rubbish about ?
""A 747 burns about 64,000 gallons of fuel to go about 8,000 miles. That works out to about eight (8) miles per gallon""

Err ? NO ! thats 8 gallons to a mile !!

and ...?
"" In the course of that 8,000 mile flight, obviously, it will burn about as much fuel as a bus would burn in 1,000 miles."" ???

So.. that would suggest the bus is doing 64 gallons per mile ! ??

.. you need to rethink that !!
