Humble apologies Hu, just going on rumour and conjecture. I will give said chopper with bad maths a good talking to in the morning, then duck when they throw something heavy at me.
Still it did start off a short but sweet infight.

Its not a problem mate but before I go off with both barrels I usually check things out
Yes there is a shortage of Bowsers - but our supporting contractors are paid to provide 2 but only provide 1 - whose saving (making a profit) there ?
and who's feeling the pain?
The one bowser that did pitch up was full, allegedly my lad drew 385 litres, when it got to you it only had enough to fill 1 and a half JP's instead of the 5 you needed filling. Where did the rest go - was the bowser full like it was claimed? Did the bowser contents meter work? Had teh driver dipped the tank?
But your guy decides that my bloke had nicked all your fuel - So once again the contractor wins and we are at each others throats
And as for taxying a jet off the detuner - there are guide/safety rails on it FFS which work fine when you are towing - but do you seriously expect anyone to taxy over a pit with nosewheel steering? He was only on there 'cos it was the closest bunded fuelling area. If he was a cowboy (and he has been called worse) he'd have fuelled it on the pan FFS.
Lets stop the dick waving contest and crack on with our own jobs - its a big enough airfield
And as final word - we were allowed on the main runway 'cos its got 2 engines and if we loose one we should still be able to clear the runway
Take care
Hu
