Hey Seadog

Started reading the reports this morning.. In the Hurri report they talk about the tests being done for two different cases.. Where the 'Service Load' is 677 in one case and 1,111 in another. Initally I thought this was refering to the fuel load, but from the report I see the fuel load was the same in both cases.

So, what is this 'Service Load'?

Does it have something to do with the ammo load?

Also, I assume this test was for the 87 oct and not the 100 oct?


Any info would be welcome! Thanks in advance!
