Hueyracer - agreed about the mil alternate and emergency fuels - ISTR the Puma engine could run on almost anything
But not diesel.

The P&W 207C engines in the Agusta 109 can run on anything the Puma HC1's Turmo III C4 could, plus diesel. Any Jet Fuels or Kerosene are authorised fuels.

Up to 150 hours on any grade of AVGAS as an emergency fuel.
