Re: Virgin doing it better in the air? (none / 0)
Why not? Kerosene consists of medium-length linear-chain alkanes, and diesel consists of long alkanes (paraffins) and polycyclic hydrocarbons
Petroleum derived diesel is composed of about 75% saturated hydrocarbons (primarily paraffins including n, iso, and cycloparaffins), and 25% aromatic hydrocarbons (including naphthalenes and alkylbenzenes).[2] The average chemical formula for common diesel fuel is C12H26, ranging from approx. C10H22 to C15H32.

I mean it in the sense that the temp issue is one of engineering, not physics.
