  1. Not sure how this can occur if they were following procedure. I’m guessing in a hurry for no reason.

    1. Allegedly the Cessna was turning tightly at the time the fuel truck rolled up. The left wing would have been going backwards at the time based on how it was described to me. Looks like the fuel truck might have hit the Cessna. Damage was on the left leading edge.
