A380 refueling test at FRA
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 14 ноя 2006
- The FRA airport check was conducted on the 29th October 2005.
The aircraft used was MSN4, a development aircraft in the flight test programme which is not equipped with a cabin.
Full equipment positioning, several ramp scenarios tested.

I have flown in A380 at least 20 times between the US and the EU. I still cannot understand how this enormous beauty can take off and fly.
Nice video this is my first time to see how they refuel the large aeroplanes
Yeah it's very interesting. I courage you to see this, it is awesome..

Great video
@stewardlie its just like refuiling your car, the fuel tanks are under ground, there are machines that will emit a certain pressure so that the fuel rises.
When I do the 47s, our trucks usually do at least 700-730, something like that, and another style of truck we have does a little more than that.
Never seen such a clean refueler lol
Only for the video lol
A380: "Ok guys, give me a shot, i'm very thisrty. Thanks".
I have got another 10,000 miles ahead of me.
Were they sight glasses on the Carters?
I take it they dont need PCV's as its on a hydrant system?
Do you earth off or does the Hydrant pit valve act as the Earth.
surprised to see plastic caps on the Plane too.
Good job
What would be the correct Way?
right on!
Bonjour, j'aimerais savoir pourquoi l'avitailleur à installer le flexible hydrant devant l'oleoserveur et en cas de problème va t-il évacuer ce dernier.
I lovd these kind of jobs
It was before the regulation for glases, ear protect your right but this was a test so it could be on the south side
there you dont need ear protect out of normal fueling
today they want you to wear both, I knew it because I was there much times
Epa curto muito estes trabalho sobre avioens
holy fucking shit, that plane is HUGE!!!!!!
After the Dispenser is parked at designated place and the safety cone is placed, Is it not mandatory to attach the bonding clip first before connecting the deck hose to aircraft?
It is, but they probably cut that part out of the video.
Maximum fuel capacity 320, 000 liters. Since it costs fuel to carry fuel, only enough fuel to complete the flight, including alternate airport and reserves, of course, will be loaded for a given flight. On some aircraft types, loading maximum fuel for a long range flight may severely limit the payload that can be carried, because of weight and performance limitations. As far as the pilots wishes go, most of them are firm believers that the only time you have too much fuel on board is when you are on fire.
Hopelessand Forlorn - people mistake operating an aeroplane to operating a car. I don’t think I have ever filled up fuel tanks FULL for a flight since I was at flight school.
Hopelessand Forlorn
Great n accurate comment.
You really know your stuff.
320,000 litres of jet 'a'
0.8kg per litre
320,000 litres x 0.8kg = 256,000kg
256 tonnes of fuel + passengers + crew + luggage + aircraft...
I can see a problem here, can you???
Fastest that I have seen is 600 gallons pre minute or 2270 litres pre minute. but that is just is system and equip,ent that we use here. All depends on tank fuel pumps, the amount of piping between the outlet and the pump, also the equipment that is hooked up to the outlet and some others that I cant think of right now.
When did they bond to the A/C??
Awsome
How does an apartment at the 5th floor of a bulding have water? :PpP
I wonder how fast of the refueling speed? how many gallons per minute or a second?
Answer is below
Is jet fuel up that much I thought it was round $5.00 to $5.50.
Seeing Rolls Royce on the engines is like seeing Sterling on Silver
yep but you have tu get closer to see it
Bonjour, je voudrais pouvoir retrouver l hôtesse qui se lâche d une facon sympathique à l atterrissage à Toulouse .. ??
I saw 3600 l/min at two vehicles until the small tanks get close ;)
but this is the monitor limit
Googlle
We refuel with max. 3200 liters per minute. We have seperate earth cables that are fixed to the ground on the landing gear closest to us. The tanks in FRA are not underground. Only the supply system is underground to every position. Our dispensers are basically filtering and reducing the flow speed of the fuel from about 10 bar (145psi) to max. 3,5 bar (50psi).
Lol 3200liters per minute😂 that's way more than and fire hose
Not possible 😂😂😂 more lies
@XxTrooKxX ensha allah I'll also be finished by then but not as a refuelling operator..but as an Aircraft Engineer..can't wait to sign off one of these babes...goin to Emirates or tayaran al emarat lol
I wanna see 800 people in your Ford Explorer :-)
no safety glasses or fire extinguishers, no hazmat placards?
Its because the jet fuel hoax is real and these guys arent pumping any fuel into this plane
mojo jojo A real hoax. There's a novelty.
No need for safety equipment when you're faking it. . Look how clean the hoses are!!! They've NEVER had a drop a fuel on them. FAKE AF
حلو اموت على الطيارات
i have yet to do a refill on the a380, but my coworker did, said it took just 40 minutes of refueling (plus his set up and take down time)
Federico Cigliutti 40 minuets with 4 connected hoses ( 2’’)
Philippe, so, when you do the math, take 4 hoses each hose carries 21250 gallons. Spread that over 40 minutes, that's 531.25 gallons per minute. That's 8.85 gallons per second. That's 1.184 cubic feet per second.
A 2" diameter hose would have an internal area of 3.14" That means, that the pumper only needs to move any unit of fuel through the line by 4" in 1 second to do its job.
Seems possible to me.

by pumping it from the underground tanks.....
NIce equipment! I worked for a fueling company with shitty trucks ... THose planes are easy, all you do is hook up and set the gauges and they fuel themselves
Mike, I used to refuel Concord at LHR twice a day...that took apx 100 metric tonn to fly to JFK and a Cathy 747/400 to HGK .....168 metric tonn...thats 168,000 kg, and with the SG at .8 that's 1250 ltrs to the metric ton.

The wings are big enough to put a roof over the heads of about 8000 hungry homeless
Oh my God, I guess the fueling things are heavy
It's probably around that now, when I made that comment a year ago, it was up.
Todos los días pasa y hace explotar las turbinas
Where to start here. Fueling above your head, no drips when removing caps, Pipe gets smaller the nearer the plane. No way all that fuel goes in a wing of a plane.
TheClippa1 start with using common sense and doing some research. Every childish question you make has an educated answer.
Fueling above your head - The fuel port is under the wing, are they supposed to lug fuel hoses on top of a wing and fuel from the top? It's called common sense no potential damage to aircraft.
No drips - Because we have engineered valves and fittings for safety. And maybe if you watched enough fuelings you'd see a drip or two.
Pipe gets smaller near aircraft - WTF are you on about, the fuel hose can only be the fuel receptacles size.
Did you go to school?
DC8Combi calm down man... He just asked a simple question. You’re typing as if you have G string up your ass!

how many gallons for a complete fillup
701,000

I think you will find for some reason its fairly poor pay in the USA for some reason. In the UK its pretty good in my opinion I earn £27400 basic salary inc shift alowance.With overtime its about £32000.Nearly double that for Dollars?
الطائرات عالم جميل.
how much do they get paid?
The actual people hooking the hoses up and refueling the plane? Not a whole lot. I did it for 4 years at both a small and large (international) airport. In 2006 I was making around than $30K USD. On the other side of it, I absolutely loved it and missed being outside (except in the dead of winter/summer) and by the end I was fueling a B777 and B747 everyday as pretty much my only flights since we still used 10,000 gallon tanker trucks instead of the hydrant system shown in this video.
Will that be cash or credit...
Ma la massa a terra non la Collegno e la prova del acqua non la fanno?
Once you have this work, in Japan there is no work
on a health and safety note shouldn't he be wearing goggles (fuel) and hard hat (working at height)
and should also be wearing a harness with a fall arrest system with lanyard clipped onto the rail of the lifting platform. Anything over 3 metres requires a harness. Safety goggles/glasses yes. If you look around at fuelers at airports they may not appear to be wearing goggles but may be wearing conforming safety glasses or sunglasses as aircraft aprons are usually quite bright as well as the aircraft themselves. But you're right, they should be wearing some form of eye protection. Not so sure about the hard hat though as there is little or no risk of anything swinging or falling as the aircraft wing is static and the fuel nozzle is barely above head height.
Our fuelers wear bump caps and glasses if that makes you feel any better..
You are right. Obviously this is not liquid fuel they are filling. Don't the jet airplanes have a pneumatic motor (air motor) or compressed air engine - a type of motor which does mechanical work by expanding compressed air?
Exactly..there is no way in hell those wings are carrying 320.000 liters of fuel ..thats over 240,000 kg...240 tonnes of fuel !!! If you believe that then its good night sweetheart ..g.co/kgs/CNmnWs
ahem...no! Do you have any idea of physics - how thick the walls of a compressed air tank need to be to operate this kind of turbine? For airplanes, it's all about the specific impulse of a certain fuel, that is, how much energy is stored in a kilogram of fuel. And you can never, ever get to interesting specific impulse with "compressed air". Do the math, and then make assumptions.
¿2020?
I wonder how much it would cost to fill one of those up..
Well... according to my brief research, the A380 takes 84,500 US gallons of fuel. Using KLAX as the source of the fuel, and assuming the airlines are paying $7.88/gal, it would cost $665,860.00 in fuel.... I'm sure the airlines are getting some discount because of the volume of fuel purchased, but that's just based on some brief searching, and using numbers readily available on the internet.... In other words, it costs a LOT of money to fill up these jumbo jets!!
Thanks for the info. That would sure melt down your credit card..
T H ya think Jesse I would be "hey mom got my first credit card" next day, "mom my credit card is gone spent all of it on fuel welp time for a new one"
G
Cool. Good to know. I'm jealous!!
@kuyakev $6.30 times the number of gallons in that tank
Fuel is dispensed in Litres the world over, NOT gallons . . .
Amazingly intricate fuel systems. I wonder how much ground time is required to refuel the entire plane empty.
That really needs superb ground crew eh?
Cheers to the Ground Crews!

No fuel, but compressed air!
Pumping liquid in a loop , thats why there are two nosels
I thought it was chemicals for the chemtrails or compressed air? 🤔
Fuel here means compressed air, that’s it
So is it chemicals for chemtrails, compressed air tanks or just enough jet fuel for the engines to generate their own compressed air you guys can't seem to agree on a theory
OK
No doubt looks like all acting to me.
A-380 single wing with 118 tonnes of fuel in it but the 6 meter flex from pressure from the turbulence wont tear it off.
If you be-lie ve that then you still
think santa exists.
It is liquid fuel and some of the tanks are also in the body of the aircraft. I have been flying as a pilot for 62 years and I tell you folks who think we use compressed air and not fuel to power aircraft are how shall I say iyt NUTS.

@@floydhorn3750 Are pilots often up climbing in the tanks?
Hahaha compressed air! We have been fooled for many many years!
wing commander
81,890, eighty one thousand eight hundred and ninety gallons of kerosene, central heating oil call it what you like, and they blame the motorist for polluting the atmosphere, you could not make it up, the only good thing is oil is not a fossil fuel, not a lot of people know that, it is abiogenic.
alfred william so glad there are people who've done research here. Unlike Richard Jones 😂
I knew that they frack at 30 000 feet never found a fossil past 12 000 feet Rockefeller fooled everyone at the Geneva conference all those years ago, oil is the second most abundant liquid after water.
thats 300 tonnes of fuel in those wings...sounds about right :S
Still contains carbon, still creates CO2 in combustion, so unfortunately it'll still be warming the planet.
Thank you for your e-m, co2 is a coolant, it does not cause warming, I used thousands of large cylinders of c02 gas for welding over 55 years, they now use c02 gas for cooling when cnc machining steel, when you go to hospital they give you 50 percent c02, 50 percent oxygen mix for recovery, look at the sahara desert the heat is unbearable, without co2 nothing would grow, aircraft burn so much fuel in the atmosphere it is out of control, here in the UK Heathrow airport in London would need 2,500 fuel tankers a day and then they would still need more. the body is made of carbon we breathe in and out co2.we pump up beer and lemonade with co2, the scientists claim the planet is greener now than it has ever been, we were going to run out of fuel 20 years ago the world is producing so much oil they do not know what to do with it because it is abiogenic old oil wells are filling up and they are re opening them, oil is is not a fossil fuel. sorry to go on but we are all being conned. thank you, kind regards, aw.
This totally proves to me that there is no fuel that runs these jets it’s so obvious it’s ridiculous these guys are supposedly pumping ridiculous amount of fuel and they’re not even wearing safety glasses masks or anything not a drop of fuel anywhere. Lets face it, these things compress air to the point where they can ignite it as fuel. Thank you for your demonstration.

i guess im the only one in chat that believes airplanes use fuel
Supposed to be 118 metric tonnes of liquid fuel in the wings each wing HAHAHAHA
Yeah no way
When you walk up to an aircraft this size you'll understand how it fits and how easily it can lift the weight. Only those people who have never explored commercial aircraft up close are the ones who claim some sort of jet fuel hoax. No jet fuel conspiracy RUclipsr has ever investigated their claim in real life or provided any tangible evidence. Sorry, but jet fuel wins every time.

kaseyjosh, as a retired GE gas turbine engineer, I can honestly say you are full of shit. I have changed countless fuel nozzles in gas turbines, know control systems and fuel systems thoroughly. I am guessing you are a millennial who took gender studies in college.
kimmer6, it's always about the imbeciles with no knowledge whatsoever that make up these conspiracies. They always find a new one because they are sickly paranoid. Think of al the engineers and mechanics who all are pretending jet engines run on fuel. You must have been paid a lot to keep silent. Something like this would leak out very fast if it was true, just like most other conspiracies (flat earth etc.). Aside from that, think about the childish idea compressed air can make a A380 fly for 15000 kms.... LOL

No need too where goggles,the fuel is air, compressed air.
Bullshit. Those hoses are for handling liquid fuel. There is a sight glass in each nozzle. Air equipment does not have sight glasses like this. If you are one of those people who try to claim that jet engines run on compressed air only, and don't require fuel, you are hugely mistaken.
What generates all of the compressed air it would take to fly hours and hours of flight?
floyd, They have a hose running to the Congress and Senate buildings. There is limitless hot air there.

That's not fuel.. Its compressed air... Ever wondered why u can't smell fuel at an airport lol
You can't smell fuel at an airport? In which world do you live? Have you ever done the math - compressed air is absolutely impossible. Why would they do that?
i smell fuel all the time close to a airplane!! did you ever been next to a plane?? when we have parts to repair from planes we need to pick them up sometimes i tell you now the planes use fuel!! i suggest you ask for a tour 1 day where they repair planes!! hey and watch this and ask the people what they smell ruclips.net/video/FfYfFvqlJD0/видео.html
peace
kaseyjosh hmmm why do we even discuss about this? How can you guys not accept true facts - go to an airport and look into those fuel tanks for yourself. Have you done that? Because I did. Don’t make assumptions before you can prove them.
you watch to much youtube vids about it!! i have been there so many times just stop the bs ... and stoP watching globebusters LOL GO TO A AIRPLANE REPAIR PLACE LIKE I SAID BEFORE !! AND THEN COME BACK !! CHEERS PEACE

over 80,000 gal of fuel in those wings LOL YA RIGH!. How long would it take this truck to pump that much fuel? Think of all that weight, over 500,000 pounds. Half a million pounds of liquid sloshing around in those wings? Ya, I dont think so. Modern jet engines only need fuel for take off and climb. Once they are cruising they need nothing but compressed air and nitrogen. Wonder why modern commercial jets have nitrogen generators?? The jet fuel hoax is what keeps airliners profitable. Claiming it takes so much fuel in order to keep ticket prices so high.
mojo jojo COULDENT HAVE SAID IT BETTR ✅
mojo jojo ITS EASIER TO FOOL SOMEONE THAN TO CONVINCE THEM THEY HAVE BEEN FOOLED
The 777 burns 8T per hour, every hour, except on descent when the engines are at idle thrust. They definitely burn fuel during the cruise.
Well I guess my job of fueling airplanes all day is worthless then. Spoiler alert: it’s not. You guys are all idiots
Those trucks usually pump around 600 to 900 GPM. They don’t need a tank because they hook up to an underground pipeline that is fed by the main airport fuel farm. And yeah, 500,000 lbs is a lot of weight but that’s also why there’s many different tanks on that plane. All those little screens you see on the upper part of that panel indicates a different tank. They act like baffles do inside of a tanker trailer that a semi truck pulls. The A380 has 5 tanks per wing plus a surge tank to handle expansion of the fuel during large temperature swings. They also have another tank in the horizontal stabilizer. Fuel is transferred back and forth between the wings and tail to keep the center of gravity where it needs to be for efficient flight. And no, engines don’t run on compressed air or nitrogen.
