IS 11254 : 1999 : Code of Practice for Dispensation of Aviation Fuel and Allied Products

1 SCOPE

1.1 This code prescribes the procedures adopted for the dispensation of aviation fuel and similar products of an aircraft, outside the hangers. These standard procedures are recommended to provide guidance to the aircraft operators, oil companies and other concerned authorities in order to minimise the hazards arising out of fuelling operations.

1.2 Much of this guidance will also apply to fuelling of aircraft on water and to cases of maintenance of aircraft fuel systems, but supplementary instructions may generally be necessary to provide for specific cases.
