Transportation priority 1 and 2 air eligible cargo is being moved from the AFCL Air Materiel Areas to CONUS on-line LOGAIR stations by surface modes. An arbitrary limit of one LOGAIR flight per station per day imposed a ceiling on the daily capability of the LOGAIR system. The increased pipeline intransit time resulting from use of the surface modes forces a set level of inventory investment. The procurement of additional LOGAIR capability reduces the overall transportation priority 1 and 2 cargo pipeline intransit time and therefore reduces the inventory investment. The thesis proposes a method to offset the increased costs of procuring additional airlift through a reduction in inventory investment. (Author)
