I notice your use of the word 'appropriate' test equipment (sounds like something Torpy might say!) so are you saying therefore, that the 'whistle & soapy water' method, as has been described on this forum is now not used? or is now not the only method used for leak detection in the RAF?
Do you use either of the methods that the winco refered to in his earlier post (I notice a lack of response from anyone regarding that) ie the sniffer kit, litmus paper, pressure testing etc. The report from the scientist bloke is quite straight forward and states that the soapy water is completely unreliable, and yet some on here claim to be still using it. If proper modern kit is being used, I just wonder why no one has mentioned that before on here.
MightyHunter AGE - perhaps you can comment on the current kit that is used at Kinloss to detect fuel leaks? that is assuming you have some of course.
