Not sure if I say I'm sorry or something more to the happy side. Been there done that but I'm been married to the present Mrs Phillips for 37 years now, plan on going to the grave first, at the rate I'm going, she'll send me there fist and it will be justified!Hey, I tried. As I'm getting divorced, perhaps my advice is best left ignored.

But you have to put scale drip pans under it then.And gaps in finish are acceptable if built with the gear down.
Drip pans not used, Jp-8 came out in jellied globs and was swept into the drain, AH, the good old day, your Air Force at work. (We don't need not stinking EPA)But you have to put scale drip pans under it then.
The one I saw at Edwards had drip pans. Of course, it was in a hangar.Drip pans not used, Jp-8 came out in jellied globs and was swept into the drain
Well to be honest the only time I was close up was preflight/launch at Det 1 Kadena and that as I say was ready to launch. A former chief I worked for invited me over for the launch. At that point no drip pans involved, jet taxied out and they used shop brooms and squiggles to flush it in the drain.The one I saw at Edwards had drip pans. Of course, it was in a hangar.
In the good old days if they needed to defuel an F-89 or something at a rural base in someplace like AK they just parked it off the hardtop and opened the tank drains.
