Papers, guides and benchmarks from 30+ years of reconciling jet fuel — plus the standalone Error-Cost Estimator that puts a dollar figure on what manual tickets are leaking.
Featured tool · Error-Cost Estimator
Most carriers leak revenue through duplicate tickets, volume mismatches, and ghost flights — and never see it. Move the sliders to size the exposure, then read the playbook for closing it.
Every uplift that goes unvalidated is a discrepancy you're probably paying for. The estimator models annual leakage from your ticket volume, average uplift, and discrepancy rate — the same exposure FuelCounter™ catches across its five validation gates. Start with these three reads:
Where the leakage hides, and what recovery looks like at scale.
How fuel teams identify, investigate and resolve variances accurately.
Turning audited fuel data into filed, recoverable claims.
Estimated annual leakage at risk
How this is calculated: annual gallons (tickets × 12 × gal/ticket) × your discrepancy rate × exposure per gallon, where exposure = Jet A price × 7%. The 7% is the share of an erroneous gallon's value typically recoverable — overbilled volume, price mismatches and missed duty/tax — not the full fuel cost. The Jet A band ($1.00–$4.50/gal) spans the 2015–2025 spot market, so leakage scales with fuel price.
Insights
From the ramp to the tax return — practical writing on capturing, validating, recovering and filing aviation fuel data.
Best practices for fuel managers to identify, investigate and resolve discrepancies efficiently and accurately — from tolerance thresholds to automated matching.
How real-time, system-to-system API integration is replacing paper, EDI batches and portal logins across the fuel ecosystem.
Why Logicraft is bringing capture, validation, recovery and filing onto one audited ledger — in the founder's words.
Drawback on imported jet fuel can return $3–$5M a year for a mid-sized carrier — yet most recover only a fraction. How technology closes the gap.
Capturing fueling as it happens — not 30–45 days later on a paper ticket — turns inventory from a retrospective report into a live operational and financial control.
Historical data, statistical models and machine learning are turning fuel forecasting from an educated guess into a precise science — now exceeding 98% accuracy.
Paper ticketing looks harmless. At a 5–8% error rate across millions of gallons, it quietly conceals seven- and eight-figure exposure — and weeks of lag.
Our forthcoming white paper maps the trends, technologies and regulatory shifts reshaping how fuel moves from the tarmac to the ledger. Beta release coming 2026.
