Yoland, with many of these tours, the airports are tiny (but much fun I might add) and more often than not have no fueling facilities available.

Question is .. should we radio ahead for fuel barrels, or do we stop enroute for refueling and continue on (of course, not counting the refueling time in the PiRep)?

My reason for asking is this could greatly affect the flight planning on some of these and really make it interesting in some cases.

Thank you much for the explanation.

I've installed an rkg gauge in all my bush planes which simulates the hand-pumping from the steel barrels and just didn't know if was kosher or not. You have to be on the ground and shut the aircraft down, then wait while it pumps it in at a rather leisurely rate (sometimes), so I guess that's as *real as it gets*. ;-)
