It is impossible to accurately measure the results of fueling aircraft safely. No one can count the fires that never start or the engine failures and the forced landings that never take place. And one can neither evaluate the lives that are not lost, nor plumb the depths of the human misery we have been spared. But the man with the fueling hose can find lasting satisfaction in the knowledge he has worked wisely and well, and that safety has been his first consideration.
