Lightweight, flyable fuel containers made especially for helicopters

Product Description

The Fuel-Easy makes transporting fuels by helicopter smooth and straightforward. No matter what the climate or conditions, the Fuel-Easy can deliver fuel anywhere it’s needed.

With its innovative external-frame fabric container, the Fuel-Easy takes much of the risk and guesswork out of fuel hauling. The Fuel-Easy is fully collapsible and offers operators greatly increased fuel hauling capability, easier fuel handling, reduced cost and wastage and the assurance of clean fuel.In use on five continents, this lightweight, flyable fuel container is a convenient and cost-effective alternative to fuel drums.

Flying With Fuel-Easy

A cargo load that changes shape in flight can be dangerous. The Fuel-Easy flies safely and holds no surprises in flight. Its rigid frame guarantees that the bladder maintains a symmetrical configuration in the air. Unlike fuel drums, the Fuel-Easy tends not to spin on the hook. When flown at partial loads, the bladder collapses into itself, creating the specific amount of aerodynamic drag necessary to fully stabilize the unit in flight. The Fuel-Easy conforms to Transport Canada Transportation of Dangerous Goods Part 12, Section 12.9, Paragraph 5(c).
