Why do jets leave a white trail behind them.
"Jim Macklin" wrote in message news:LMUzf.66027$QW2.60514@dukeread08... Purple 115/145 avgas, burns just fine in the jet and was required by the big P&W radials. Yep. As I recall, the jet engines did also not run continuously, but were turned off, after takeoff and climb. Correct? -- Jim in NC

They cruised on just the piston engines and used all 10 for
take-off and attack runs, I think they did the climb using just the pistons.
