Q

What are the four operational restrictions using JP-4/JET B?

A
  1. Takeoffs shall stabilize in a hover for 10 seconds with no fuel press cautions.
  2. Single engine training is prohibited.
  3. Operating characteristics may change. Lower operating temps, slower acceleration, and shorter range may be experienced.
  4. Due to the vapor qualities of mixed JP-4/JET B, the next two refueling with a primary fuel shall be treated as if JP-4/JET B is still present.
