I was a filler 'er up gas man in another life & did a stint in Broome back in the 80's. Can't think of the guys name whom owned the Mobil agency way back then but I used to charge a call out fee ('cause that's how I got paid) for the Airlines (AWA, F28's) & the Army as they passed thru with their funny PT6 powered drug runner planes I used to call 'em but any blow in I did for free where I could provided I could manage it in a timely manor.
Also back in the 80's at Tulla we re-fuellers where on better money than any pilot bar the Capt's, now the poor buggers are getting flogged....ahhh the good old days where rorts where common place !
