This monthly newsletter highlights known and emerging trends, environmental and geographical matters, as well as advances in operational efficiency and safety. Flight and ground safety have been enhanced and many accidents prevented because of shared experiences.

“TIS THE SEASON” By Lou Sorrentino

Now that winter is upon us, well some of us, it is important to remember how a change in season can affect your operation. Hopefully you used the late summer and fall seasons to perform preventative maintenance inspections (PMI) and prepared your ground support equipment for the coming winter season. As the holidays quickly approach, some operators will experience peak demand for ramp space and services, and it is during these stressful times that shortcuts are taken and accidents occur. So before the busy push sets in for the season, please remember to…

Communicate with your employees on a daily basis and remind them, “shortcuts can cause accidents”.

Ground Equipment should be securely parked, placing the transmission in Park, the emergency brake Set and adequate chocks installed. Discourage leaving equipment running while unattended. If you must allow a piece of equipment to idle, make sure it is properly secured as above. Also, remember to avoid uneven surfaces and slopes and to park equipment so as not to face an aircraft (direction of travel).

Always assume ramp surface conditions are worse than they actually are – remember we are not just dealing with snow, but ice and potential materials like spilled oils, de-icing fluid, gravel and who knows what else. All present operating challenges.

Make sure your employees have the proper winter gear to protect them but also to ensure they can be seen. High Visibility vests and hats are a great choice. Make them mandatory for anyone going out on the ramp.

Hangars present some challenges as well. Melting snow and ice create puddles and puddles on a painted floor cause slip hazards. So be careful out there. Check the floors frequently and warn your Customers to exercise great care if they must walk out on your hangar floors.

Wooden chocks have been known to slip on wet surfaces and even when small granular deice pellets are used.

Remember to use good quality florescent cones with high visibility tape. Old dirty cones don’t stand out on those dark moonless nights. You need all the help you can get so use the cone/tape combination. They really do work.

Taxi lines on your ramp may be covered by snow and ice, so think twice about parking aircraft close to know taxi lanes. Try and build in as much space as possible.

Provide arriving and departing crews with a ‘Follow Me” service if the ramp is overly congested or obscured because of snow and drifting snow. They’ll appreciate it.

Finally, don’t rush. Speed kills. The best operators plan and then execute. Watch the weather forecast and prepare.

NATA Safety 1st eToolkitNATA Safety 1st eToolkitINJECTOR GUIDANCE FROM THE MANUFACTURERS In our last issue, we highlighted flight crew concerns about receiving the correct amount of Prist when refueling at FBOs. Guidance, in the form of a checklist, was given to flight crews and shared with you to prepare for crew questions. As promised, Hammonds and Gammon Technical Products developed specific injector and maintenance guidance for your use. Additionally, Air BP Aviation and ChevronTexaco recommend that you refer to the MSDS and wear appropriate PPE. PREVENTATIVE MAINTENANCE CHECKLIST

HAMMONDS MANUAL AND “SMART” MODEL 600 PRIST® INJECTORS

1. Check additive supply daily and inspect desiccant dryer. If dryer is more than three quarters pink, replace the element.

2. Always wear gloves and goggles when handling additive or servicing your additive system.

3. Inspect entire system monthly for leaks including all fittings on additive tank, delivery and injection lines, calibration gauges and additive pump.

4. Inspect and clean screens in Sight Flow Indicators and filters in additive lines in “Smart” systems monthly.

5. Check pump stroke adjustment setting monthly, should be about 60% and knob should be tight. Knob should not move when operating.

6. Change diaphragm annually. Follow factory recommendations for procedures.

7. Be certain system has 25 PSI check valve on calibration output port before calibrating to atmosphere in an open container.

8. If additive supply is incorrectly installed below injector, consult Hammonds for special instructions.

9. Visually check for additive flow through Sight Flow indicator, Suction Calibration gauge or digital additive meter during each use.

10. Check calibration of any additive system every 90 days.

11. Consult Hammonds for free assistance in operating and maintaining your Hammonds additive system. 800-582-4334 – website hammondscos.com

Operation:

1. Verify whether or not the aircraft to be refueled needs additive injected into the fuel.

2. Verify that there is a sufficient amount additive in the reservoir to complete the refueling operation.

3. Turn the air supply valve to the on position.

4. Turn the Inject/Test valve to INJECT.

5. The aircraft can now be refueled.

6. Watch the sight flow indicator to verify that additive is flowing.

7. When the refueling operation is complete, turn the air supply valve and the Inject/test valve each to the off position.

Calibration:

1. Set the truck up to re-circulate fuel.

2. Turn the air supply valve to the on position.

3. Turn the Three-way TEST/INJECT valve to TEST.

4. Place a graduated cylinder under the test port tubing.

5. Flow fuel thru the truck until there is no air coming out of the test port.

6. Empty the graduated cylinder. Place it under the test port.

7. Flow 100 gallons of fuel thru the truck.

8. Verify that 380 ML of additive has flowed into the graduated cylinder.

9. This should be done several times to verify the amount.

Viper Eclipse Operation Manual

Description: The Viper Eclipse additive injection system is a self-monitoring and self-adjusting additive injection system. The system was designed so the operator has to make a decision to inject additive or not to inject additive each time an aircraft is refueled. Each time the vehicle is moved, the additive injection system is reset. The vehicle now cannot

pump fuel until the operator selects either additive or no additive. A display is provided to show the actual injection rate in parts per million and percent of additive. A second screen on the display will show gallons or Liters of fuel pumped and gallons or Liters of additive injected.

Operation:

1. Verify whether or not the aircraft to be refueled needs additive injected into the fuel.

2. Verify that there is a sufficient amount of additive in the reservoir to complete the refueling operation.

3. Use the selector switch on the control box to either select additive or no additive. This will enable the vehicle to pump fuel. The selector switch is not an OFF/ON switch for the injection system. If the wrong selection is made, the vehicle must be turned off and restarted. The only way the system can be manually turned off is to turn off the ignition switch of the vehicle. The system will automatically turn off when the vehicle is moved.

4. The aircraft can now be refueled.

5. If the system shuts down the vehicle, look at the warning lights on the control box to determine whether too much or too little additive was injected. Make a note of the parts per million of additive injected and the number of gallons/Liters of fuel pumped. If no additive was injected, verify that all of the valves installed in the additive lines and air lines are turned on, and that there is additive in the reservoir. Press the reset button to restart the system.

Calibration: If there is a problem with the calibration contact Gammon Technical.

1. Set the truck up to re-circulate fuel.

2. Select additive on the control box.

3. Turn the Three-way TEST/INJECT valve to TEST.

4. Place a graduated cylinder under the test port tubing.

5. Flow fuel thru the truck until there is no air coming out of the test port.

6. Press the reset button on the control box. This will reset the display to 0.

7. Empty the graduated cylinder. Place it under the test port.
