The best bet in a fluctuating market is to by as
little as you can while the price is high and as much as you can when it is
lower.


Most of the small airports near here have either one large fixed tank or a
tanker truck. Usually the trucks hold very little more than the minimum amount a
supplier will truck to the airport and the fixed tanks hold very little more
than a standard tanker load.

The guys with only fuel trucks are pretty much forced to fill one up when the
supplier makes a delivery. The guys with large tanks have more flexibility, but
they have to pay extra if they buy less than a full tanker.
