Jet A1 - a strange world come to think of it

For a change Europe has taken an innovative initiative. Diesel engines are more fuel efficient, are quieter, and are likely to last longer. Presumably all good for the environment.

Undoubtedly the lower price of diesel has encouraged their development.

Moreover, they are manufactured in Europe, rather than in America, and therefore both create jobs at "home" and avoid the need to ship units half way around the world.

What a success story for the United States of Europe .. .. ..

.. .. .. until we manage to spoil it by hiking up the price of diesel.

Strange world really. If I were Diamond I wouldn’t be voting for my "local EMP" that’s for sure.
