Default Base Coat - Clear Coat Question

I am new to painting jets. Most of the people I know recommend using the base coat-clear coat method. It is my understanding that the paint used as the base coat is a laquer type paint. From what I understand this paint is not fuel proof and is not as durable as the two part paints such as PPG's Concept. The guys at Radio South recommend using the two part paints as your base coat. It does not have to be clear coated but if you desire you can.

I was wondering what the pros and cons of each method are.
