Aboeing 767 due to fly from montreal to edmonton required refuelling. because the fuel gauge on the aircraft was not working, a mechanic used a dipstick to determine that 7682 l of fuel were left on the plane. the plane required 22,300 kg of fuel to make the trip. in order to determine the volume of fuel required, the pilot asked for the conversion factor needed to convert a volume of fuel to a mass of fuel. the mechanic gave the factor as 1.77. assuming that this factor was in metric units (kg/l), the pilot calculated the volume to be added as 4916 l. this volume of fuel was added and the 767 subsequently ran out the fuel, but landed safely by gliding into gimli airport near winnipeg. the error arose because the factor 1.77 was in units of pounds per liter. what volume of fuel should have been added?
