Only the avgas running ones Alex, as you are prob aware.
Performance orientated aircraft use avtur. No good for RS's unfortunately, but if you have a diseasel daily runner avtur is excellent. 50-50 mix of the two. Doubles the fuel consumption on top of the normal diseasel output (only 50% needed to fill tank) and does not have any long term damage.
Cheap as chips.
*looks up*
Any ideas where I could get some of that from mate? I'd like to have a butchers for .. err. My Jet-engined.... something.
