During the Gulf War in Iraq, large amounts of military matériel and supplies had to be shipped daily
from supply depots in the United States to bases in the Middle East. The critical factor in the movement
of these supplies was speed. The following table shows the number of planeloads of supplies
available each day from each of six supply depots and the number of daily loads demanded at each of five bases. (Each planeload is approximately equal in tonnage.) Also included are the transport
hours per plane, including loading and fueling, actual flight time, and unloading and refueling: Determine the optimal daily flight schedule that will minimize total transport time.
