I think you'll find the average turn around time is longer than it was a year ago. How else would you explain the decrease in utilisation?
In any case, the final 'fuel cap on' check is made just before starting each engine - this hasn't changed since, well, ever.

I hope the refueller came in for a wet bus ticket as well. I mean, you've got one job to do for christs sake. Perhaps two jobs in GIS, perhaps this is the problem.
Did the refueller go off watch for his lunch break just prior to completing refuelling?? Perhaps he legally didn't have the time to get the cap back on, and needed a sandwich. Might have had a date with the tower controller. In which case, this is Labours fault and they should all be arrested and charged with endangering the lives of everyone aboard.

Cutter and 18wheels,
Yip, I forgot about that last look before starting the engines (been a while). Good point.
heh heh we all know that feeling! Problem is though that you shouldn't have to say tha every bloody day, you should only get that stressed if something unusual as happened.
Anyway, I've probably dragged this thread in the wrong direction....bloody Labour....if it's not a benefit dependant nation of losers or a huge ACC bill it's the ole fuel cap on the wing trick....glad they've been relegated considering.

"well you can just f**king wait until I'm ready then."
