Just a reminder, gasoline does not have a flash point because it can flash or fire at any temp.
It does most certainly have a flashpoint...
AVGAS 100LL has it's flashpoint at -40 degrees Celsius, and Jet-A1 has it's flashpoint at +45 degrees Celsisus. These are of course textbook-values, so differences may occur in real life as the fuel rarely is exactly the same as the textbook-fuel..
Just to get the facts straight....
