Hey guys. I guess it depends on the source of the fuel. There are different varients of Jet fuel, and some do have additivies, and some don't. If you know the source then there should be no problem.

In my case the drained (and tested) fuel from our helicopter and bowser sits in 2 glass jars inside a locked cuboard for the day. The next morning the fuel goes from the glass jar direct to my own fuel container. I completly understand about taking fuel from drums, you would need to have a lot of confidence in the person filling the drum, and even then may not be the best idea. Using the surplass fuel from the daily fuel drains (for testing purposes) is the best option.


Cheers,

Greg
