Some pics from work.

Hey all, just a little view into what I do for a living.

Getting the plane to the spot:

Almost there!:

I can has fuel?:

Only if I figure out how to get it from the truck to the plane! (I know how, just a little humor.):

Is it done yet?:

Wanna see my big hoses? :

IL-76 parked next to us.:

Just grabbing my stick and tweaking my throttles. (I'm not a pilot but sitting in the seat is close.):

That's all for now, I'll take some more when I get the time.

Does the fuel hose click when it's done like a regular gas pump?

Does the fuel hose click when it's done like a regular gas pump?

Depending on how weak the inlet valve is and how much of a pressure spike I get in the line, yes, sometimes it does click.
