Who wants to see a smacked up fuel truck???
Whats up guys. I figured we can all enjoy these photos. I work as a Supervisor for a fueling company that fuels commercial airplanes. At my airport there is another company that services general avaition and I'm friends with most of the guys from the other company. Well one of them had a little accident and smashed through a fence taking out about five fence posts. Here are some pics of the fuel truck.

Your looking at the front of a Aircraft Re-Fueling truck. The bumper is destroyed so is the exhaust system which runs to the front of the truck keeping the gases away from the Jet Fuel in the back. There is a hole punched into the intercooler for the turbo. It really does not look so bad but everything that is installed on a fuel truck that fuels airplanes had to pass all kinds of crazy FAA standards to be around planes so the price is triple what it would normally cost.

Yep its gonna be. Also you must understand that you just cant rig it or leave it as is like you would do if it was just some delevery truck drving around delivering bread or something LOL. It must be fixed correctly or it will fail one of the many inspections that vehicles get when they operate on an airport.
