Build one of these: http://alexisparkinn.com/fuel_truck.htm and save
yourself many, MANY thousands of dollars.

It's safer, easier, and your fuel is filtered properly.

Hey, Jay,

I admire your ingenuity in implementing "The Grape".

I was just thinking about all the rules / precautions that are taken at my
airport with fuel trucks. They have a special parking area away from everything
else, and they are returned to that parking area after every fueling. It's so
far away that the line crew has to take a golf cart to go get the truck. They
return the truck to its special spot even if they anticipate they'll be using it
again in a very few minutes. I'm sure all this is not just FBO policy, it must
be regulated in some way.

So, finally coming to my point, I wonder whether you take any similar
precautions with the grape, whether you carry insurance on it, whether the
insurer has put any limitations or special provisions on you.

Just curious.
