Early forms of refueling in flight

OMG! What a mistake!! I blew up the photo and realized he's using the wrong hose/nozzle!  That's the "regular", not Jetfuel Premium!   

That's probably just the cheap pilot trying to save a few bucks.

@100ford2003 Wow...what will they think of next?

That remains to be seen. I can not predict the future.  🤔

You can't? And there was me thinking you were one of the smarter guys around here. (Sigh).

@graeme-ogg There is IMHO no argument as to who is the proven smartest Forumite  and I won't say his name as he is a very modest individual.....but I will say that he is lightening fast on the buzzer. 

@perrone1  Makes no difference they will soak the government the premium price.

Well, I sure hope I didn't disappoint you because I'm not... I can still just barely learn how to tie my shoes 😒

Oh I remember this TV show Paul! It was called, "The Crazy Things People Do." It only lasted this one episode. The show bombed.

Ah yes, Dr. Strangelove.

So how many Forum Members here remember the movie 'Those Magnificent Men and Their Flying Machines' ? 

My aviation teacher, Mr.Tom Rose, was available to get a copy of it so we could have a fund raiser for our Bola Grande H.S. Aviation Club. 

We had a blast watching it !

Sorry JB, I'm not understanding the nineteen reference. And I'm not watching anything tonight.  was just checking out the Forums before I drop off for a few snoozes before I go to work tomorrow morning. Have a good rest of the night 💤

@100ford2003 "how many Forum Members here remember the movie 'Those Magnificent Men and Their Flying Machines' ? "

Just 19 of us ?  That's better than I thought but not enough to either float my boat or fly my plane.
