I’m gonna share a faith in humanity moment.
So this is a Cessna Caravan owned by a pipeline patrol company. Most Cessna Caravans I have to get a ladder and fuel them over the wing with a squeeze nozzle. However, this one was converted to be able to be refueled with a single point nozzle. Which is where you plug in a hose to a port on the plane, and hold a button to pump the fuel in.
They converted it because a pilot told the company that a refueler almost fell off his ladder trying to fuel the plane, so the company converted their planes to be fueled this way instead, even though they wouldn’t have been liable for what could have happened to that refueler.
We need more people like that in the world.
