I love that show. Buffalo Joe, I'd not want to work for him. But, the planes
and the situations are really engaging. I'm also very, very glad I'm not
there. That weather and such, is really rough. The government is also a PIA.
I suspect because Joe's rather dificult to deal with.

* Rom Northern Air Cargo website:http://www.nacargo.com/shipping/rates.php

The formula to calculate total charges is weight x /lb. rate x current
fuel surcharge x tax = total

For example: a 72 lb. widget from Anchorage to Bethel would be charged
as follows;

72 lb. x .74 (rate) = $53.28
$53.28 x 12% (fuel*) = $59.67
$59.67 x 6.25% (tax) = $63.40 total charges

Effective Date: January 01, 2011

That is AMERICAN North on scheduled flights.

InnCanada, First Air, flying from Resolute to Arctic Bay,1-10KG is
$40/kg11-15Kg is $50/Kg, 16-20 is $67/kg, 21-25 is $83/kg, all the way
up to 41-44KG at $141/kg.



So, you get a pallet of cabbage, weighing 35KG into Resolute and want
to ship it to Arctic Bay, it will cost you $3990 to ship it. Say each
cabbage weighs 1Kg (2.2 lbs) the cost per cabbage is $141.

Are you so dumb that you really think it costs $141 to
ship a head of cabbage?

Per your shipping rates above, why would you put it onto
a pallet. The heavier the weight, the more you're saying they
charge you PER KG. So, send it one cabbage at a time
and it will cost a lot less.

In other words, I think as happens frequently, you've got it
all screwed up, because those rates make no sense. You
want to think about it, check it out and get back to us?

OK, let's work with the above. Clare told us that it cost
$141 to ship a single head of cabbage from Resolute to Arctic Bay,
right?

It's a distance of 200 miles. The Electra has a cruise speed
of 373mph. Let's be generous and say the flight takes an hour.
Per your numbers the fuel cost is $3,800. The Electra has a
payload capacity of 45,000 lbs. So, using your numbers
the fuel cost per pound for the flight is $.08. Let's say it flies
with only a quarter of a load. It's then $.32

Or take the bottom line number you supplied, $11 per mile.
Then the trip total operating cost is $2,200

Let's double that assuming there isn't much coming back
the other way. The highest number I get is then $.64 per
pound of freight.

Now of course there are a lot of other costs involved besides
the operating cost of the aircraft, the pilots, depreciation of
the aircraft, profits, etc.
But do you really think given the above, that it a cabbage
costing $16 can be attributed to the air transportation?
I can see it being a couple bucks. Which by the way
jives with what you stated about it costing as much as
the fuel to haul gasoline to the most remote Canadian
military base. Four bucks for hauling a gallon of gas,
a buck or two for hauling a cabbage. I can deal with that.

And according to Clare the freaking cabbage should
cost $141+ because that's what it costs to ship it.
And the other thing that makes no sense is that the shipping
rate goes up, per pound, the more you ship? I can see
that happening for special, large, heavy items. But
according to Clare's rates, you could ship those cabbages
cheaper one at a time. His rates show that to ship
up to 10kg, it's $40 per kg. But if you ship 11kg, then it
goes up to $50/kg? That's just a 22 lb item.

Beginning to smell like either the heavy hand of govt
or some major shystering to me.

InnCanada, First Air, flying from Resolute to Arctic Bay,1-10KG is

up to 41-44KG at $141/kg.

So, you get a pallet of cabbage, weighing 35KG into Resolute and want
to ship it to Arctic Bay, it will cost you $3990 to ship it. Say each
cabbage weighs 1Kg (2.2 lbs) the cost per cabbage is $141.

#
# Are you so dumb that you really think it costs $141 to

#
# Per your shipping rates above, why would you put it onto
# a pallet. *The heavier the weight, the more you're saying they
# charge you PER KG. * So, send it one cabbage at a time

Yup
I can just see a grocer individually wrapping and shipping cabbages
separately
And you are foolish enough to imagine that the cargo service will not start
charging a minimum ?

A grocer doesn't wrap up cabbages, the produce
supplier does. It was Clare who came up with the silly
number of $141 to ship a single cabbage 200 miles.
And I'm the foolish one? All I did was point out it's obviously
BS and that he based it in part on shipping a pallet of
cabbages. The shipping rate he posted is less for smaller
loads. So, yes, the produce shipper would package them
in smaller packages. The one head at a time was a
sarcastic exageration, which was obviously too much
for you to compute. You swallowed the $141 BS, quite
nicely though.

Fool, even per the rate table, it would cost $40 to ship a
cabbage just 200 miles, not the $141 that Clare came up with and you
bought in to. I had to tell the both of you that IF those rates
are real, then the obvious thing to do is ship them one
cabbage at a time. One cabbage weighs 1kg. So, it
costs $40. Are you that stupid?

As for not including the shipping to Resolute, again fool,
I didn't come up with the example. It was Clare that came up with
the example and chose looking at the cost of that
shipment from Resolute to Arctic Bay.

No, just a good dose of reality. BTW, who says those shipping
costs are the costs that a volume shipper of goods actually pays?
That there are not substantial discounts? That those posted
rates are for the walk-in guy who sends one or two packages
a year? You and Clare have heard of volume discounts, right?

And on top of all that, the point of my jab at HomeLessGuy from
Canada was that if goods like a cabbage were selling for $16
anywhere in the USA, for whatever reason, he'd be bitching and
using it as an obvious defect and serious problem in the USA.
That part of the whole thing went right over your pointed little
head.

Actually you are

# All I did was point out it's obviously BS

And obviously you were wrong
But then armchair Monday Morning quarterbacks usually are.

# and that he based it in part on shipping a pallet of cabbages.
# The shipping rate he posted is less for smaller loads.
# So, yes, the produce shipper would package them

# for you to compute. You swallowed the $141 BS, quite
# nicely though.
#

The difference between you and people who have actually been up there is
that you are ignorant

#
# So, you're actually with Clare that it costs $141 to
# ship one head of cabbage 200 miles. Is that what you
# saw when you were there? That cabbage costs more
# than $141 a head? Boy, you really are stupid.

How could I be stupid after you have cornered the market for stupid ?
But to get back to your stupid post

The original info was:
++ InnCanada, First Air, flying from Resolute to Arctic Bay,1-10KG is
++ $40/kg11-15Kg is $50/Kg, 16-20 is $67/kg, 21-25 is $83/kg, all the
way
++ up to 41-44KG at $141/kg.
++
++ So, you get a pallet of cabbage, weighing 35KG into Resolute and want
++ to ship it to Arctic Bay, it will cost you $3990 to ship it. Say each
++ cabbage weighs 1Kg (2.2 lbs) the cost per cabbage is $141.
++

I notice that you have NEITHER challenged that shipping rates provided or
the calculations derived
That is THE ONLY WAY, you can prove that the estimate of $141 per cabbage
for 35 1kg cabbages would be $141 per cabbage

So, instead of just yammering like a stupid fool suffering from verbal
diarhea, feel free to demonstrate that the rate data provided is wrong.

That is what the transporter CHARGES to ship stuff up there
Notice also that you forget to include the costs of shipping to Resolute,
which by the way is NOT FREE eitther.
#
# Fool, even per the rate table, it would cost $40 to ship a
# cabbage just 200 miles, not the $141 that Clare came up with and you
# bought in to. I had to tell the both of you that IF those rates
# are real, then the obvious thing to do is ship them one
# cabbage at a time. One cabbage weighs 1kg. So, it
# costs $40. Are you that stupid?

I'm sorry that you can't follow a simple mathematical argument
Why don't you come back when you have learned how to do that instead of
just spouting ignorant drivel

#
# As for not including the shipping to Resolute, again fool,
# I didn't come up with the example. It was Clare that came up with
# the example and chose looking at the cost of that

And you have still to demonstrate it was false.
Come back when you can do that
shipment from Resolute to Arctic Bay.

But you know what
If everyone can shop their cabbage for $141 per and you figure out how to do
it for $40 per
YOu now have a potential profit of $100 per

Here's your chance to make a killing and become the Cabbage King of more
than Alt.home.repair
Good luck on your business venture.




But it is funny to see you spin and pontificate to cover for your
ignorance.

If as you claim the service could be provided cheaper, you would have
some
guy in a plane flying crates of cabbages up there and making a fortune

Well, obviously someone is, fool. Or do you still believe
that cabbages sell for $141+ due to shipping costs?

Moving of goalposts noted

No, just a good dose of reality. BTW, who says those shipping
costs are the costs that a volume shipper of goods actually pays?
That there are not substantial discounts? That those posted
rates are for the walk-in guy who sends one or two packages
a year? You and Clare have heard of volume discounts, right?

And on top of all that, the point of my jab at HomeLessGuy from
Canada was that if goods like a cabbage were selling for $16
anywhere in the USA, for whatever reason, he'd be bitching and
using it as an obvious defect and serious problem in the USA.
That part of the whole thing went right over your pointed little
head.

That's an entirely different issue.

No, that is why many places no longer ask for the SS and is why many

It seems you missed the idea that the expert on everything knows more

God, you're dumber than a stump!

No, it is *completely* different. Employers don't print it on your
business cards.

I seem to recall when stores would ask for a SSN when using checks.
Some folks would then have it printed on the checks to save a little
time at the register.

I did at one time. The campus check cashing service required it (it
was also the student ID number).

They also need it for pre-employment screening and such.

No. I haven't been unemployed since I was 17. And since I own my own
successful business, I don't plan to ever apply for a job again in my
life.

So you freely admit that you haven't a clue what you're talking about.

Just hate the Orwellian nightmare that's unfolding. The
information you so freely give away, will be used by others to bite you
in the ****ing ass, hard. Have fun with that.

That's real irony, coming from a statist.
