What do the numbers mean in the aviation fuel grade designation 100/130?
Were the different fuel grades dyed different colors in the USAAF?
What grade was referred to by the British term "purple passion?"
While most of the American octane boosters involved tetra-ethyl lead, what were the main octane boosters added to British aviation fuels? Were the aviation fuels blended in England or at the refineries over seas? I see the names of the Dutch refineries in Curacao and Aruba as important.
