My brother-in-law pilot of a single engine, piston driven aircraft. He had to know the difference between Jet-A and AvGas.

I have not read anywhere about any incendiary rounds.

So is my dad, my mom, my sister and lots of other people. I had ground school and only lack a bit more flight time to get my own ticket. So what. No where in that training was the flash point temp of Jet A. They teach you useful things like how to read weather charts and how to file a flight plan.

Knowing which fuel to pump into your plane and knowing how to make a tank of them go *boom* is not the same thing.
