A long time back, the airport tore down the half dozen or so fuel storage tanks across the street from my office. Since then they've been building 3 new big ones. It looks like they're nearly complete now. Sometime in the past day or two a crew painted a legend on one of them that I can see from my office:
TANK NO. 24
JET A
VOLUME 8,100,000 GAL.
Assuming that some portion of them is left empty to allow for expansion or whatever, it looks like I'll soon be working a few hundred yards from about 24 million gallons of fuel. Whee!JET A
VOLUME 8,100,000 GAL.
