Someone should re do their maths in the above story.
Campbelltown Labor MP Greg Warren said, “When the operation reaches full capacity, the airport could potentially require 50 to 65 B-double fuel tanker deliveries per day
50 – 65 B Dbls a day when the Airport reaches full capacity – really !!!!!!
A 25 mtr B Dbl holds 70,000 ltrs of Fuel.
1 X A350 Aircraft takes 300,000 Ltrs of fuel. Thats 4 B Dbls to fuel ONE plane.
So according to Mr Warrens story the new Sydney Airport will only have around 22 Aircraft take offs a day !!!
Even the smaller 737 Aircraft take just under 7000 ltrs of fuel.
The roads will be absolutely choked with Fuel Tankers doing shuttles to the Airport. Next there will be submissions to Government to run QUAD Road Trains. Another Typical NSW Government STUFF UP.

This airport has been talked about since 1940s, it is finally being built after decades of “turning the first sod” and the clowns aren’t going to have a pipeline to fuel the machines that this construction is being built for? Australia was once known as the “Lucky Country” but I think that has now slipped to the “Stupid Country.”

I wonder how long before Badgerys Creek get a night time curfew because people who haven’t moved into the area yet complain about the noise from the machines that this place was constructed for.
