Red face

For those who know the layout, I'd just landed on spot 3 at Bessbrook, was approached by a refueller who I waved off as fuel was not required. As I pulled the engines back to idle, all I could do was watch in horror as said refueller then decided to take a short cut up to spot 2 by climbing over the dividing wall between the two pads, directly towards my still spinning blades. He'd got to within a foot of them when he was rugby tackled by an alert door gunner who pointed out the error of his ways. Refueller then turned a strange colour and retired to his hut.
