Seaplane refueling from portable cans in 19 Mile Bay

1) The Town of Wolfeboro demanded that Wolfeboro Airpark remove its 100 octane fuel pump from the vicinity of its floatplane ramps. A 500 gallon fuel container was placed in the bed of 1920s Ford 1-ton pickup truck and gravity-fed gasoline to floatplanes which occasioned Winter Harbor. A logbook was placed on the passenger's seat so bills could be mailed out.

When the truck was removed before 1997, floatplanes were fueled using hand-carried containers.

2) Something you seldom see with banner-towing aircraft.
