The BAC 111 also had water injection for extra t/o performance
and any spare water left had to be dumped after t/o as no heaters fitted.
Remember the 111 where some oik filled the water tank with jet A1 (or methonal), the t/o was spectacular but it very soon became a large glider.
I don't think anyone was injured and I think it was in Germany.
