This program allows the operator to maintain a data file of fuel costs for all airports from which the airline may operate. The program allows for six levels of price as a function of volume purchased. It also accommodates the difference between domestic and bonded fuel prices. Additional information on the Supplier, Handling Agent, etc., may also be stored for easy reference. The date which each station’s fuel price record was created or updated is automatically recorded.
The Fuel Costs menu is a web-based version of the FOMS 130 menu. It has the same purpose as the FOMS 130 menu with the addition of a Copy button. Refer to the Fuel Costs Fields for a description of the fields used.
