He has to pump 200 gallons of each fuel from each nozzle. 4 different ones - one for Avgas and 3 for Jet-A.

AWWWW! You got your little sticker! Good job!
Question...................do they put the 200 gallons back?
good question - yes, they do...they rig the hoses to recycle the fuel back into the tank after the measurement is complete. that would be 800 gallons total - wow that's a lot of $cash if they didn't give it back!!!
Interesting. That's not much leeway. Glad to know someone is looking out for us. And glad you got your sticker. MOM
Sweet - glad you got yours - I'm hoping that you didn't have to be too involved...
Love,
