Tip from Passenger shortly after takeoff(Twotter -single pilot), why is there fuel flowing across the floor??
Me: Someones bush stove must have been loaded on with fuel and it's tipped over
Passenger: No it's plane fuel, here smell(proceeds to hold out hand dripping with Avtur)
Me: (turnaround and see floor awash with Avtur) Righto, well we better head back(Seriously Sh**ting self and hoping there aren't any sparks)

After landing the engineers had a quick look and pronounced all done and right to head back out.
Me: "well lets call it a test flight and which one of you engineers is coming with me"??

Engineers declined and pulled aircrft back into shed and proceeded to work on for rest of day.

Great Tip, thank goodness I had Passengers onboard and not a freight run!
