In addition we have arranged with the organisers, Avanti Gas and Silverstone that the pumped and metered propane supply will be available for refuelling during the event at a cost of xx pence per litre (and only xx pence per litre if more than 1,500 litres are used).  A blank cheque will be required in advance to use this facility.   A gas card will be issued to each balloon team once their registration has been accepted and completed.  A member of your team will need to initial the card after each fill to indicate that they have received the amount of gas shown on the card.
