![]() "jbaloun" wrote I did not say there would not be an environmental impact, just that the fuel dumped in flight is likely oxidized and would not stay in the air or land on the ground in the form of raw fuel. I think you are making a mistake, in you use of "oxidized" in this case. "Oxidized" is combining it with oxygen chemically, as in "burning". In this case, there is no combining chemically, but only vaporization, as in evaporating. In both cases, no fuel reaches the ground. -- Jim in NC |
