Would appreciate some words of wisdom concerning static and refuelling aircraft with Mogas (car petrol). I understand (according to August Pilot) that it is NOT recommended to refuel aircraft with Mogas from plastic containers due to the possibility of static discharges. Does anybody know where this comes from? I can understand there may be a problem in dry and dusty Australia and Arizona, but Europe?
