You forgot to mention the part where in auto mode you reach the predetermined amount of fuel and stop, then the fuel gauges keep going up until you're 600 lbs over and get chewed out by your supervisor. Thanks bombardier.
Happened to me today. Pressure fueling had problems the flight before and the computer ran 4 bite tests making it impossible for auto refuel work. I'll take any plane to refuel over the RJs. Not to mention it'll try to over fuel itself if you're not watching it on auto.
It's actually "bonding" not grounding. The term "grounding" was a left-over from when the fuel truck/cart was bonded to the aircraft and another cable was connected to a ground rod. This procedure was abandoned in the late '80's when the military found that it was safer to statically bond the aircraft without also going to the ground rod. The bonding cable neutralizes any static buildup between the two.
@@davidsmiths5471 Ok just for you then I will state what's not so obvious. As you said you can ground any aircraft as long it's on metal, that's not wrong. But if you do it on painted metal it may not make a good bond and if you scratch the paint it will start corrosion and cause problems.
@@redbull8661 That is why I stated " it is on metal"! If someone needs to be told the difference between metal or something painted ,maybe shouldn't be by aircraft at all!
@@redbull8661just wanted to add to this. Always safer to do it on designated bonding points or points where you can almost 100% guarantee that you have good continuity between said bond point and the entirety of the airframe. Example: I would catch my employees and pilots of general aviation aircraft (let’s use the good ole Cessna 172 for example) bonding the refueling truck to the nose gear assembly of the aircraft. Sure, it’s connected to a bare metal surface. However, much of that linkage is painted or rusty and not providing great continuity to the rest of the airframe. That nose gear assembly is also an oil filled cylinder with rubber gaskets between everything. I never did think to use my multimeter to actually test the continuity of that nose gear assembly. However, I hope no one has to find out the hard way.
Talks of grounding but not bonding? Bonding far more important than grounding. If you do not understand the difference between the two you should not be providing advice on the control of potential static build up during fuelling operations.
@@therealp7667 you are bonding the aircraft. It’s the same damn thing. Lol people so crazy. I work at a fbo to and we call it bonding or grounding the aircraft
Hmmm..is that 10,500 gal? What steps need to be taken to allow the air to escape at such an unbelievable rate? Why doesn’t the hose budge when you start fueling? How do those skinny little wings even hole more than a few drops? How could an aircraft possibly fly with such absurd supposed weight? Hmmmm. Looks like bs to me. Not one drop ever spills? Not one?
Aircraft are fueled in lbs so about 1500 gal. The wings carry the weight of the loaded fuselage plus the forces of flying so logically the fuselage can support the weight of the wings on the ground. In the air the wings are essentially supported by their own lift. Just call up a flight school they'll happily show you around the fuel system.
10,500 lbs, not gallons. Air also escapes through vents located under the wing, on some aircraft, you can hear it. Fuel is normally pumped at about 20-40 psi if I remember correctly, the hoses themselves are rated for much higher. Yes, the wings do support this weight, even on the ground. Sometimes the nozzle may leak a little bit of fuel if it does not seal correctly, but normally not a problem. Any other dumb questions?
@@tomdickens7856 you forget that after closing everything up there's almost always a few drops of fuel between the adaptor and the single point that is just waiting to drip onto your face or clothes.

That bothers me too! lol
very clear description of intended audience. I wish you did for all other aircrafts as well
Good video
These aircraft never fuel to the amount one wants in automatic mode.
Nice ty
Wow superb
U forgot to release the pressure in hose. Very important!
Good awesome...
could a use two second clips of your footage for my school documentary project ?
what type of cloth we should wear when defueling/fueling
100% cotton is what your supposed to wear.
anything your ok with getting fuel on and never getting the smell out.
Military ke fighter jets ka dark green kyun hota he batana arur. Nahi to me bataunga.
Part of maintenance
No test?
Can someone explain to me how he knew that 10500 was needed for the total capacity? Please
Not total capacity. It is what the Flight crew would have requested
It looks exactly the same as the challenger 300

You can ground any aircraft as long it's on metal!
You should only use the ground points.
@@redbull8661 Thanks for stating the obvious for everyone!

you didnt say anything about a pre check??
Whats a pre check?
Trey Schneider not possible on the auto mode or really at all on this type of plane

Agreed!
what is it?… we only ground at my fbo
