To support powerline inspections, we have used two types of vehicles:
The simplest was a Tarago towing a trailer with 3 drums of Avtur. Plenty of room for pumps, maps and other support gear, plus the ability to shed the trailer for a run to town to the motel.
The biggest was a truck with 2 x 1500 litre flow bins on the back, plus 2 drums, a hydraulic crane, electric pumps and hoses and filters, all fully certified as a fuel truck with flash suppression, extinguishers etc. It had a duwl cab for extra lockable storage. It was towing a car trailer carrying a small sedan. This meant that the truck could be left in the field next to the chopper and the car could ferry us to the pub. Fuel trucks are not allowed in motels. And the car let us drive the 5 or 6 hours back home for the weekend for a crew change.
Horses for courses.
