After it emerged that the refueller from Signature was uncontactable, Gama requested support from BP.
However, they were told that BP's tanker was not licensed to go across the airfield.
Gama claimed that BP also refused an offer to be escorted by airport officials, or let the ambulance taxi over to them.
Depends who you believe, I suppose, but if your aircraft was refused fuel in such circumstances you'd be screaming at them that it was a medical emergency
