Fuel Mix A320
Hi can someone tell me where i would be able to find info about fuel mixing and if it's allowed ( on a 320 with IAE V2500) .
The closest info i got was from the AFM but it says nothing about fuel mixing ( not sure if thats the term ). AFM only states which fuel can be used.
The normal fuel we use is JET A1 but I would like to find out if you happened to divert to an airport without JET A1 ( for whatever reasons ). What happened next? Which type of fuel are we allowed to ermm "mix"?
JET A1 + ??
Many thanks.

I recall reading same somewhere (can't recall the ref) but I
wouldn't make a move unless I was in contact with my mob's
engineering dept who'd have the full specs. What they would
dictate goes, irrespective.
I know ours NEVER want JP4 anywhere near our suck-squirts.
