Topic 3, Norland Telegraph (NEW)
Arrfield targeted by environmentalists

Environmental campaigners have criticized fuel suppliers at Norland's airports for selling aviation fuel more cheaply than in other countries The N$ is strong, making it possible to import fuel more cheaply Most suppliers are passing some of the savings on to airlines in order to boost revenues.
Airlines are responding by buying more when they refuel aircraft in Norland This means they need to buy less fuel for the return flight from their destination Environmentalists are concerned because this means that aircraft are carrying tonnes more fuel on their outward journeys and so consume more fuel and cause more pollution in the process.
Airlines refer to this as "tankerage" because aircraft are effectively acting as fuel tankers on their outbound journeys An airline spokesperson defended the practice, stating that it is a cheaper way to fly even though fuel consumption is increased.
