Twin towers engulf, two kerosene clouds stay, fading like the dead.

I'm not sure jet fuel is kerosene.

Robert,

I hope they use kerosene or this senryu's useless. I'm pretty sure they do but if you find out please let me know as you wouldn't have thought that for no reason.

I'm glad you got the jist.

you were right:

Jet fuels are produced mainly from straight-run [5] and hydrotreated kerosene [5A] or kerosene blended with heavy naphtha streams [4 and derived streams] from the atmospheric distillation of crude oil. Jet fuels are composed mainly of aliphatic and aromatic hydrocarbons with boiling ranges of 150-300 °C (kerosene type) and 45-280 °C (wide-cut type). The formulated products are used in turbine engines of civil and military aircraft. Exposures to jet fuel may occur during its production, transport and storage as well as during refuelling and maintenance of aircraft. Heavier exposures may occur during inspection and repair of aircraft wing tanks owing to the confined working space.
