And actually its not that hot at the back of the aircrafrt, you can spray jet fuel into the tailipe, just aft of the engine exhaust nozzle, for smoke, and the fuel almost certainly won't burn, but fuel is a potential source of fire and its presence in the airframe as a result of a leak is totally unacceptable.

So all in one sentance you admit the fuel will most likely not ignite, even in the hottest part of the plane
we can find, but you still say its unacceptable...

Fascinating.. !!!!
