Ok by now we all know some idiot Republican talking head is making a big deal of Obama using the campaign plane to go see his ailing Grandmother. So I have a suggestion let's send a message right back. Let's all donate a gallon or two of jet fuel to help pay for this very important trip. Total we need to raise 88,400.00
My numbers are based on a 200 lb fuel burn per hour on a 757 with 1lb of Jet A = 8 gallons = 12,800 gallons for the eight hour trip. Since he is only coming back as far as NV I'm putting this at a six hour trip or 8000 gallons.
Total use 20,800 gallons of Jet A X 4.25 = $88,400.00
DONATE
Yes I know not much a diary.
