Let T=(V,A) be a tournament with a nonnegative integral weight w(e) on each arc e. A subset F of arcs is called a feedback arc set (FAS) if T\F contains no cycles (directed). A collection F of FASs (with repetition allowed) is called an FAS packing if each arc e is used at most w(e) times by the members of F. The purpose of this paper is to give a characterization of all tournaments T=(V,A) with the property that, for every nonnegative integral weight function w defined on A, the minimum total weight of a cycle is equal to the maximum size of an FAS packing.
