Just a bit of history and Chevron. Back in the 80s, they sold a bad batch of AVGAS in California and bought a bunch of airplane engines as a result. Mine was one of them.
I will say that they did go above and beyond to correct the problem.....

Yes if only we in SA had fuel offshore or anywhere, we could've built places like.....

SASOL 1,2,3....certain things one should never sell....ever, like pik is a good source of mineral & energy affairs.

Makes one stink, doesn't it?

This is getting too much confusing;

RWY 19
ILS Intermittend
Hole in RWY
No Fuel.
Immigration not at duty stations.
Security searches when crew leaves airport.

This could easily be the lovely West African Metropolis of Lagos.

Dankie tog for the mountain and ATC accent or we would really be confused. Goldfish may be able to help - talk with a mouth full and let go of the ptt halfway through the tx and the Lagos chaps will realy feel at home.
