It's located how far from aircraft fueling pits/areas ? A distance that surely exceeds the dimensions of my backyard.
Careful... Duke787 may find out that planes and ramp equipment are completely filled with a highly flammable liquid! And even worse, they literally FILL THESE THINGS UP on the ramp - sometimes with trucks that are like 80% flammable by volume! That's gotta be a huuuge safety violation (Realize that propane is a bit more volatile than jet fuel or diesel and that it is probably not certified equipment, but still ).
