Piston-engined airplanes run on 100 octane leaded fuel. Some piston engined airplanes can run on automotive gas, but this is not recommended.
Turbine powered aircraft (turboprops and jets) run on jet fuel which is basically highly purified kerosene usually with some additives to protect against water contamination and gelling in low temperatures.

The fuel consumption of a Boeing 767-200 ER aircraft on a 7 hour flight is approximately 8,400 gallons. This equates to around $46,000 for the flight.

A Boeing 727 typically burns about 6,800 pounds of fuel per hour during flight. The actual fuel consumption can vary depending on factors such as the length of the flight, payload, altitude, and weather conditions.
No, it is not necessary to include your middle name on flight tickets. Your first and last name should match the identification you will be using to board the flight.

Dimensional analysis could have prevented the crash of flight 143 by ensuring that the fuel calculations were based on consistent units. By rigorously checking that all measurements, such as fuel quantity and consumption rates, were in compatible units (like pounds or kilograms), the crew could have avoided the confusion caused by mixing metric and imperial systems. This careful scrutiny would have highlighted discrepancies in the fuel load needed for the flight, potentially preventing the aircraft from running out of fuel mid-flight. Thus, a systematic approach to dimensional consistency might have led to more accurate fuel management and enhanced flight safety.
No domestic airline offers a direct flight from Hawaii to Fort Lauderdale, Florida. There is not enough fuel storage on a commercial airliner to allow such a flight.
The price of your flight may have increased due to factors such as high demand, limited availability, or changes in fuel costs.
Because they met headwinds at the start of the final flight, causing more fuel burn in the engines.
