I heard from the Albury Refueller that they went through 14,000 litres of avgas, and the Warbirds and display planes would have been less than 4000 of that at least. They had to bring in a second taker Friday night after going through 8000 L and added another 6000.They left empty. I was lucky to get filled
Do the numbers, 10,000 + litres and I know I only took on 115L, so how many aircraft do you need to suck up that much fuel.
I think 400 is a gross understatement
So Capt Garmin, I think your organiser mate was suffering from a lack of available data at the time!
It was a major hoot. And I am understating it.
