Old not Bold
ONB- oops sorry - didnt see that bit on your post - apologies for preaching to the converted.
But I think we are on the same page because although I worked for the Oil Company, if I was the airline, I wouldnt do it either. But having said that, our SOPs didnt allow us to put it back into the AIRPORT day tanks.
In most cases it was downgraded to 'DPK' (Dual Purpose Kerosene) and it went to who - knows - where.
Maybe we were just overcautious in deepest darkest Africa.
Again, apologies.
