It's funny watching you all use different words and think they mean the same thing. Turbine powered aircraft, whether jet, fan or prop (a Citation is a turbofan powered aircraft) use Jet-A which is basically diesel (OK, OK, it's kerosene but they aren't that different). Piston planes (of which there are plenty) mostly use 100LL - high octane, leaded gasoline. Now that we're done with the pedantry, please continue with your argument.
