Jet Fuel
Jet fuel and diesel fuel are very similar. Jet A is a kerosene grade petroleum fuel product most used Jet propulsion aircraft. ASTM standards and specifications like Jet A-1 and is normally only available in the U.S.A. It has the same flash point as Jet A-1 but has a higher freeze point maximum (-400C).

Jet A-1 is a kerosene grade petroleum fuel product that is mostly used internationally in Jet propulsion aircraft. Jet fuel A1 fuel is identical with Jet A but with a maximum freeze point of 47 degrees 0C unlike Jet A that has a freeze point of -40 degrees Celsius. It is produced from crude oil petroleum to a stringent internationally ASTM or GOSH standards and specification agreement is standard, has a flash point above 380C (1000F) and a freeze point maximum of -470C.

AVIATION FUEL JET B ASTM D6615-04a
ASTM D6615 – 06 Standard Specification for Jet B Wide-Cut Aviation Turbine Fuel
The technical requirements of this product, at the time of the first publication of this specification, are substantially identical to the requirements of Jet B in Specification D 1655.Jet B is a distillate covering the naphtha and kerosene fractions. It can be used as an alternative to Jet A-1 but because it is more difficult to handle (higher flammability), there is only significant demand in very cold climates where its better cold weather performance is important. In Canada it is supplied against the Canadian Specification CAN/CGSB 3.23.
