A Boeing 747-400 has a max fuel capacity of 57,285 US gallons. (from http://www.boeing.com/commercial/747family/technical.html) The price for Jet A fuel the airlines pay is usually a negotiated volume discount price, however you can get Jet A prices for any airport to do a for a ball park figure here: http://www.airnav.com/fuel/local.html As of Feb 21, 2005 the price range for Jet A was $2.64 to $4.46, with an average cost of $3.26. Therefore ... 57,285g x $3.36= $186,749.10
