Ramp fuel was usually 4100/4400 lbs eastbound/westbound in the summer, probably 4400/4800 lbs in the winter. That's with no alternate. Can push over 5000 lbs of fuel if the weather is bad enroute and you have FLO or CHS as an alternate, but I've seen SAV and CAE make the list a few times. It usually burned anywhere between 2000-2400 lbs of gas depending on how high you got to climb and what shortcuts they gave you.

It would be fair to say that Cpt. Oveur has done the trip more than once. In fact, we all could tell you exactly what is on the breakfast buffet and probably what they will be serving at the evening hour....
