£9,750.00 + VAT

When owning a helicopter or providing ground support to small aircraft either on an airfield / airport (heliport) or even out on location the 950 litre highway tow JetA1 fuel bowser becomes a vital piece of equipment. By having a road legal fuel bowser you are able to tow your JetA1 fuel to wherever you aircraft is parked. For example many air ambulances / search and rescue, NPAS (police helicopters) and flying clubs use road towable JetA1 fuel bowsers to refuel their aircraft some may be used while airside at their operating bases and tow the fuel bowser from one aircraft to another to refuel the fleet at home, but then they can also have the opportunity to tow the JetA1 fuel bowser further a field to continue flying operations further away from the airfield. The Queens flight is a perfect example Trailer Engineering has in the past supplied a JetA1 fuel bowser for the Queens flight in which was used to refuel the helicopter and then drive to the helicopters next destination to the refuel it for the way back. You may also find plenty of JetA1 fuel bowsers being used at events such as horse racing where helicopters fly into the race coarse and then require refuelling for the way home.

Trailer Engineering’s 950 litre JetA1 fuel bowser is perfect for small to medium aircraft refuelling tasks. Ideal for private helicopter owners, flying clubs, airfield operations and refuelling helicopters at events.

This 950 litre Jet A1 fuel bowser is fully U.N. and CAA (civil aviation authority) certified.

The Trailer Engineering JetA1 fuel bowser is manufactured from a steel outer bund complete with lockable rear door and a polyethylene inner tank to ensure the cleanest possible fuel storage solution. This is a cleaner way to store JetA1 fuel as the polyethylene tank produces less condensation than the conventional steel tank meaning there is less water in the fuel and also polyethylene does not rust/corrode meaning there is no particles from the actual fuel tank over its lifetime. This JetA1 fuel bowsers tank/bund also has two fork sockets (for use when tank is not in trailer) four lifting points.

All of Trailer Engineering’s fuel bowser range can be configured as skid base tanks, site towable trailers and E.U approved highway tow trailers.
