ETOPS, thanks for the detail of the fuels. Do you know why the JP5 is not permitted for civilian use and what benefits does it bring the air force?

Also, as engines may produce smoke on approach, my suggestion (above) appears to be wrong. I had thought that the engines working at max might smoke on departure but not in the cruise. Is the anti-ice component the main reason for smoke?

Thanks.
