NATA Issues FBO Equipment Care Guidance
With FBOs pumping less fuel as a result of the Covid-19 crisis, NATA has offered guidance on fueling equipment that is seeing diminished use.

With FBOs pumping less fuel as a result of the Covid-19 pandemic, the National Air Transportation Association (NATA) has issued equipment maintenance guidance for fuel providers. During this “low-use” period, problems that might be encountered in refueling equipment include microbial growth in filter vessels, tanks, and piping; increased water production in fuel tanks with low volume; and unused fuel left in hoses that could possibly “spoil” or degrade off-specification.
