![]() "Robert Bates" wrote in message news:EJwuc.18339$IB.1786@attbi_s04... Yeah, I know I'm going to get flamed I have read a lot recently about people burning everything from bio-diesel and straight french fry grease to used ATF in ground based diesel engines but what about flying turbines? I am quite sure that they would burn either at ground level but will these fuels gel at the lower flight levels and would the FAA have a problem with fuel type in an experimental aircraft? Gel would not be the worry, but repeatable, consistent runs. What if there is a chunk of a french fry that got by the filter? The price of fuel is not the most important factor in owning and running an airplane. No sane person would risk the plane or his neck, just for burning a bunch of waste to save money -- Jim in NC. --- Outgoing mail is certified Virus Free.
