Regarding the use of mobile phones at petrol stations, Esso Garage Portabello Edinburgh has too accidents recently, on two different occasions members of the public have set fire to themself and petrol vapors at this garage, Why would you even want to chance it?
Thats why is p**sess me off big style when pax are on their phones while sitting at the overwings, sure its only 5 tons of fuel next to you!
Ah yes it's back!
Here's what the Mobile Manufacturers' Forum says:
Mobile Phones and Petrol Station Safety
and here's what the Institute of Petroleum says:
Ignition of flammable vapour by mobile phones not substantiated by technical evidence
Do also bear in mind that the fuel that the pax are sitting next to is Jet A1, not petroleum spirits like 100LL or Mogas.
