I fly primarily for business, and visit a variety of FBO’s. There has been quite a few instances with fuel screw up: no re-fuel, not enough, and poring out the vents. All pilots: (1) visually check your fuel and (2) sump each tank. Don’t be another unexpected glider. Thanks for this video, great reminder to all of us.

This was a good video that didn’t deserve to have such a misleading title applied to it. There’s a line between drumming up interest and outright lying, and I feel like this video crossed the line with its title.

It seems as if every youtuber goes through a time where they decide if they want to start using clickbait, and it's always unfortunate to see a quality channel like this one start going down the clickbait rabbit hole. Completely unnecessary. Quality content usually goes way further than clickbait in the long run.

@gorgly123 Год назад

This is why I always watch my plane being fueled. It's to make sure they put the correct amount of fuel in and also to verify that the correct fuel (100LL) is being delivered.

@paulhendershott667 Год назад

Best safety video I've seen in a while! I had the same thing happen to me in Roanoke VA. I dropped in to let weather a huge fast moving front move by. I got a lift to a recommended restaurant to grab dinner, waited out the hour long storm and went back to the airport to continue up to the Adirondack mountains in NY. I paid the fuel bill which seemed spot on, went back and did the preflight including sumping the wings. I took a quick peak into the tanks and realized I hadn't gotten a drop of fuel! They couldn't explain what had happened, just that they would "get right on that" and get me on my way. A possible nighttime fuel starvation scenario in the making. I likely might have caught the issue from looking at the gauges, but I normally fly the longer legs by calculating power settings and leaning the fuel. Single pilot, at night, at the end of a long day of flying, is not the best time to count on catching all the clues...

@Avi8tor857 Год назад

Always verify fuel, really should be the first item on your checklist ... I forgot to sump the tanks one time after fueling. Luckily no issue, but talking about a punch in the gut when you level off after climb out and it hits you... you forgot to do something so simple that could have major impact. I had landed at a airport close to where the plane was based to fuel it as it was substantially cheaper there, self serve pump, jump back in to get the plane back (it was a rental) in time. Luckily a lesson that stayed with me as a couple years later I did get water in a rental (first to fly it that day) that I caught, It is always a chain so if you see one forming be the loudest voice in the room :-)

@SkylaneGuy Год назад

Great story! You're actually very lucky to have had this experience because you will never take off again without visually checking the fuel level.

@thebadgerpilot Год назад

I always make an effort to watch my plane being fueled to verify the proper fuel type, amount, and that the caps were properly replaced. It also gives me a chance to see any linesman induced damage (thankfully hasn’t happened yet), but more importantly gives me a chance to meet the folks that work at my airport, build a rapport, and get to know them a little. Many of them have dreams of flying, too!

I had a similar experience. I was renting a C172 for a night flight. The plane schedule said it was topped. When did the cabin preflight, the gauges didn't look topped to me. When I pulled the caps, I could definitely tell it wasn't full. Asked the line guy, and he said, "Oh yeah, I filled it up!" But I convinced him to pull it back to the pumps. He put about 12 gallons in, if I recall. He had checked off in his mind that he had filled it up when he actually hadn't. I probably would have been fine for that flight, but I was glad to have the tanks full. We're all human, we all make mistakes. We just each have to do our part to make sure the Swiss cheese holes don't line up.

@scottwillson5562 Год назад

this makes a lot more sense. i was thinking there's no way he eric ran almost ran out of fuel. but yes, 100% always do your preflight. i once forgot to put the fuel cap on and the chain was broken. miraculously got to my first stop and noticed it was gone. i had gotten distracted by a fuel hose that would catch and was pulling the whole time. so rather than button up as usual i jumped off the ladder to replace the hose. that said, i now always take a few steps back and just generally look over the aircraft from a distance.

I have always taught my students trust but verify. Every flight I would ask them how the fuel and oil level looks. Then I would check myself, another lesson I learned was to make sure. I checked the fuel and caps after the student did. Great video, it will save someone from trouble.

@SoCalFlyingMonkey Год назад

Another fabulous video, thanks for sharing your experience! Trust but verify, judicious suspicion, call it what you want. We probably should stick around to watch them fuel as high as the stakes are. Did they fill the proper tanks, did we get the right fuel type and quantity?

@robertbrown9827 Год назад

Good work sir. I never let my plane get fueled without me present.

@andrewliebfried3120 Год назад

ALL WAYs supervise someone servicing your plane. ALL WAYs double check everything they did. If they added oil verify the quantity and ensure the cap is tight. Fuel, visually verify and secure the caps your self. If they move your plane verify there was no damage to the steering mechanism. Do a detail visual on the exterior. Don’t let them drop the fuel hose over the wing, make sure they didn’t spill have oil over the engine. I started out as a lineman and have seen many a careless act in my 55 years in aviation.

@johnh9637 Год назад

It is essential to check fuel after each refuel. If a fuel cap was incorrectly replaced and loose, expect the fuel to vent overboard in flight. If you're flying a high wing, get a plastic step stool (Walmart, $10) to climb up there, and bring it with you.

@SoCalFlyingMonkey Год назад

Totally agree!

@halepauhana153 Год назад

Good lesson. Another good tip - carry more than 1 credit card. One time I had to refuel at a self-serve pump at a remote airfield, and it kept rejecting my first credit card. The second one worked. And unbeknownst to me, the 2nd credit card company kept trying to call me during the flight home, because they thought my card had been compromised. Apparently that fuel supplier had some "issues"....

@mattgirgenti3595 Год назад

As a general rule, when I don't do self-serve, I stay with the plane while being fueled. Right fuel, right amount, right plane. As a bonus, I get a chance to chat with he line crew AND TIP. If I have to run out, I try to hold off until I return before getting fuel. The only downside of fuel, then start is water hasn't had time to settle yet. Either way, once done, I visually check the tank and sump them .. even when in suit pants. I'd rather have a dirty suit then crash pre-dressed for my funeral :)

@SoCalFlyingMonkey Год назад

@richardandersen8198 Год назад

I had somewhat of a similar situation but the main difference is I didn’t verify! Our CFI had just landed and the student getting off the plane had his flight plan handy, while I had mine in may folder, inside my bag (we need a flight plan to fuel the plane) so he asked me if we should just use his, which was fine by me. CFI told me to fuel up to 12gal per wing to the C152 and since it was the other students flight plan I relayed the information and told him to fuel 12 pero wing. In my country the pumps are in liters so he fueled 12liters per wing (about 3gal per wing). I then helped push the plane to where it can be started and did an extremely fast and weak preflight inspection which skipped verifying fuel onboard. Needles to say we took off trusting the plane had 12gal per wing and flew about 1hr 50min. After we landed I checked fuel and we had close to 2gal in one wing and almost 0 in the other wing. That’s about 20min of flight time in our 152, so it was a close call but out of pure luck, nothing happened.

@mjsprouse Год назад

My Saratoga is fueled (via text, I’m not present) by a major brand FBO. I found one cap improperly reinstalled and not properly sealed - during the recent major SoCal rainstorms. After sumping a ton of water I let the FBO know what they did and I got the same response - basically they didn’t care.

@fabitocl Год назад

Nice video! I fly in South America where fuel is sold by liters, even though everything else is measured in gallons - including consumption, usable fuel, tank capacity, and so on. One time, a pilot landed and asked the FBO to "fill it up with 20 in each wing." He meant 20 gallons, but unfortunately the FBO loaded his plane with 20 liters instead of 20 gallons. The pilot did not pre-flight correctly and ended up crashing the plane, resulting in a non-fatal accident. It was a sad way to lose such a beautiful C172.

@davidklassen2805 Год назад

I had a very similar experience it was going to be my first instrument flight lesson. The line guy pulled the aircraft out of the hanger and said it had full tanks. I did a full preflight, but since it was a high wing, didn’t check the fuel since he told me, I had full tanks After I had completed my preflight. I was waiting on my instructor and decided to go visually check the tanks before we took off and I found nothing other than 6 gallons of fuel in the tanks of a Cessna 172 which would be less than one hour of flying. Luckily I caught this before we took off

This is a really important cautionary tale. Thank you for taking the time to make such a good video about it! It's a classic swiss cheese scenario. Hole 1: Two very similar tail numbers at the same FBO at the same time. Hole 2: Communication mixup over which aircraft was fueled. The final two holes in the cheese would have been if you: 3: didn't visually verify fuel level and 4: disregarded electronic fuel gauges as being faulty. That would have lined up all the holes, and you would have been making a night time landing in the middle of the desert. Good thing you stayed vigilant! And I'm glad you told the FBO how much of a problem their mistake was.

@TheBarzook Год назад

Super unnecessary click-bait title. Honestly you don't need to do this, we'll watch it anyway even if you the title says: "So I thought the FBO had fueled my plane". I don't know in the US, but in Canada it's mandatory to have working fuel gauges. It's a pain to have them fixed and properly calibrated (it just cost me 2500$ to do on mine). But it's an added safety. First thing I do when I go fly is turn on the master and check what the gauges are reading and then during my walk-around I check if the fuel level inside the tank matches with the gauge. It's not 100% fail-proof, because it could happen that the gauge is not working and matches the fuel inside the tank. So if you know what your gauges are malfunctioning, fix them. It's just another layer of safety. If for some reason you don't do your physical check, then sitting in the plane you would have seen that you're not full or that at least something is wrong. Then you do a physical check and either conclude that you've not been fueled up or your gauge is acting up.

@EdwardHefter Год назад

Even if I do an abbreviated preflight, I *always* check the fuel for the reason you said - the fuel gauges are notoriously inaccurate. BTW, there are no US tail numbers that have a sequence with letters and then a number, like __SB5. But, best not to put the person’s real tail number in, so I’m ok with it!

I like your video, and all the others I have seen of yours. I know its seems very serious, but you would have caught the problem when you started taxiing and saw low fuel gauges (I know they are inaccurate, but they give your an idea of fuel level). And someone else who’s not as good as you would have run a tank dry, and had to switch tanks! That is never a fun surprise, but it would alert them to the low fuel situation,,, and lead to a divert to fuel in the Central valley. Still, great video and maybe it saves one person from a traumatic situation. Good job!

Cause: pilot requested his twin cessna (piston powered) to be fueled to the top...... inexperienced fueler figured it needed JET FUEL because of its size and the fact it had two engines and proceeded to fuel up the tanks with Jet fuel...... Engines did ok until the jet fuel began to mix and cause detonation, with eventual engine failure...simple mistake that almost killed 4 people.
