With reference to my previous thread on red diesel, I have just had the official word from Customs and Excise that it is perfectly legal to use red diesel in a light aircraft. As regards availability mentioned in the earlier thread, I, like many others would find it much easier to find red diesel than Jet A1. I already use it on our field tractor and generator. To get Jet A1 I would have to fly to an airfield with silly landing fees. (Yes I know, a lot of fields with silly landing fees do not even have Jet A1 )
