Isn't Jet Fuel more expensive than diesel wholesale? I know it is more
retail. It just doesn't seem logical that people would be buying Jet to
avoid the measly difference in taxation. After all, most won't many
diesel
engines wear out on Jet A if you don't add lubricants to it?

We may be paying $4.00 or more at the FBO's, but the bulk rate to the
airlines is $1.20 or so.

I ran Jet A in my ground support equipment for 25 years or so with no
problems. If you are worried, dump a little oil in it.

Ahhh, but that is not highway use. I think actions like this may have
caused the supposed problem, but I am not sure that you actually have to pay
ANY tax for ground support trucks unless they can legally use the roads.
