Aviation fuel is used in an airplane. It is a cleaner, more pure form of diesel type fuels,. It often contains chemical additives to reduce the risk of icing or explosion due to high temperatures, amongst other properties. The militaryuses an even higher level of fuel, usually referred to as JP-5 in the military (Jet Propulsion).
