I have a great, patent-able idea to cut turn-around time: It's called 'Fuel-Along'. Re-fuel as the plane taxis down the runway. Think of it as 'just in time juicing'. The tanker physically attaches to the aircraft, which tows it along as it taxis and pumps. I mean, we've all waited and waited while the line of planes inches along, right? And they can re-fuel mid-air already, so connect and disconnect should be solved aready. Would cut at least 20 minutes off the turn around, right?
