Avgas

<< < (3/3)

mention1:
Aircraft have to be weighed periodically, I think its like every 3 years. The engineers have to take all the avgas out to get what's called an Empty Aircraft Weight. The wheels are rolled onto 3 electronically connected scales.
Anyway the point is that the fuel that is removed cannot be ever used in an aircraft again legally, so it normally sits in a 44 gal drum. There are at least a dozen aircraft maintenance facilities at Bankstown/ Camden.
 Just sayin'

bootlegger:
I used to buy some of that waste fuel from bankstown yearz ago. I think it was less than half the price. He wont sell anything now. Bankstown is really regulated now.
