I once was tasked into a small airfield not far from Trenton in Canada in a C130J - the airfield was just big enough for us although most of the concrete wasn't strong enough to hold the weight. We parked up outside the Flying Club to load our pax & refuel. The club was running a special offer - something like 'a free steak with every 100 litres of fuel'. We took on about 8000kg of fuel - the man looked a little distraught, didn't have the couple of cows to give us.
