Icing two questions.
  • Just looking at some Stats:

    AVTUR – Freezing point -47C

    Aviation Turbine Kerosene AVTUR- Freezing-50C

    JET A- Freezing point -47C

    I am told the fuel temp at high altitude drops to the minus 20’s, so why does one fuel need PRIST and the other not? Surely all fuels contain some dissolved water including JET A.
  • From an earlier thread why isn’t the
Tailplane heated?
