Williamsburg - Whitley County Airport

• Drive fuel truck to aircraft
• Dispense fuel from truck to aircraft
• Collect payment from pilot or aircraft operator

The pilot or aircraft operator does not have to be involved in the fueling operation. Additionally, the aircraft generally does not have to be repositioned for fueling, since the truck delivers the fuel to the aircraft's location.

• Position the aircraft near the fueling station
• Provide a method of payment (typically a credit card) to the automated fueling station
• Follow the instructions and procedures for the automated fueling station to dispense fuel to the aircraft
• Obtain a receipt from the automated fueling station (may not always be available)
• Reposition the aircraft away from the fueling station to make room for other aircraft to use the system

Most automated self-service fueling stations are available 24 hours a day. However, some may not be, or the airport may not be open 24 hours a day. It is the pilot's responsibility to ascertain that fuel will be available at the desired time.

Due to their design limitations or to availability of ramp space, some self-serve stations may not be adequatelly equipped for all types of aircraft. Pilots should check in advance for availability of ladders (for high-wing aircraft), lights (for night fueling), ground wires, hose length (for larger aircraft), etc.

Local laws, regulations, or operating procedures may require operators of a self-service fueling station to undergo training or obtain some form of authorization prior to using a self-service fueling system to fuel aircraft
