FBO chain Modern Aviation accepted its first all-electric refueler this week at NBAA-BACE. The 5,000-gallon Rampmaster tanker is just the second fully electrified jet-A refueler in the world, with the first being delivered to Signature Aviation earlier this year.

Modern’s truck was unveiled in the exhibit hall on Tuesday. At the end of the show, it will make its way north from Nevada to its permanent home in Washington state.
