    What part of 100% proof is alcohol jet fuel - that easily catches fire (inflammable or flammable) and how a quick spark could devastate and entire industry in quick fashion of intense heat, combustion, flame, fire, wind, and energy transmutation !

      Even knowing that grain silos, and grain dust can easily heat up and naturally combust, ... with such a grain combustion fire, then reaching out to the alcohol refinery/distillery and firing up the whole enterprise is easily understood - how disaster can happen with faulty cleanliness distillery processes.

      The Angel's Portion of the distillery casks airs would provide a great fuel and combustion feature that could expode, and then fire-burn the whiskey casks, which then would overheat, explode, and further destruction would increase, ... much like the fire disaster of the Grav von Zeppelin Hindenberg at NAS Lakehurst, New Jersey.

      Jet fuel is essentially kerosene. To my knowledge, there’s no alcohol in jet fuel for one specific reason, the capacity to carry dissolved water. Proofing alcohol happens by adding water. If water and alcohol separated, whisky or scotch and the like would, over time, separate and you’d notice.
      The avoidance of water in jet fuel is critical because the altitudes (and thus bitter cold) at which jets operate. Ice forming in fuel is apt to clog fuel lines and starve a running engine which many consider unfavorable for the safe continuation of sustained flight.

    I am coming to despise the music that is ruining so many of these history documentaries. Whether it is poor mixing or just old technology, if the music drowns out the narrator it's infuriating. This becomes a useless distraction.

    Henry Ford had his supply chain from A to Z owned by Ford. It would appear he was 3 centuries behind the time.
