Nimrod with a bizarre fuelling arrangement??
Any journalist who can produce a report such as this BBC nugget can consider themselves as truly clueless (as can the sub-editor who approved the article).
Did it not occur to the author/editor to wonder why one would ever need to connect/disconnect a fuel hose to an aeroplane's brakes, hot or otherwise?
This gripe however should not detract from the well deserved publicity regarding the quick thinking & brave actions from those involved.
