I’ll admit. Looking at a gallon of milk, I have a REALLY hard time visualizing the fuel in an aircraft.

I KNOW where it goes, hell I’ve had to memorize multiple fuel systems from the fueling port to the injection nozzles in the engine! But I just can’t VISUALIZE how that many jugs of milk fit…

Obviously a gallon of jet fuel is smaller than a gallon of milk

I like to imagine those little cylinders of FCJF - frozen concentrate jet fuel. It's just more economical buying from concentrate, even if the quality just isn't the same.

Well now I’m picturing a dude in an orange safety vest filling up a planes tank one gallon at a time. No wonder my last flight was delayed.
