Fuel Mix A320

pwned · 18th Apr 2012, 13:06

Hi can someone tell me where i would be able to find info about fuel mixing and if it's allowed ( on a 320 with IAE V2500) .

The closest info i got was from the AFM but it says nothing about fuel mixing ( not sure if thats the term ). AFM only states which fuel can be used.

The normal fuel we use is JET A1 but I would like to find out if you happened to divert to an airport without JET A1 ( for whatever reasons ). What happened next? Which type of fuel are we allowed to ermm "mix"?

JET A1 + ??

Many thanks.

I recall reading same somewhere (can't recall the ref) but I
wouldn't make a move unless I was in contact with my mob's
engineering dept who'd have the full specs. What they would
dictate goes, irrespective.

I know ours NEVER want JP4 anywhere near our suck-squirts.

Hi,
Should be in FCOM-Lim 28....(though we have CFM's)
Mixing is allowed,however you have to consider different freezing temperatures

Happy Flying
