Default turbine oil and fuel



AT the moment i am using mobile jet 2 turbine oil,but in the uk its starting to cost alot to fly.
19litres of parafin is £18.96 plust 1 us quart of oil what is about £8.50 = £27.46 for 20 litres of fuel ready to use.
20 litre of fuel at 3 litres per a flight is about £4 pound per a flight.give or takea few pence.
So my question iswhat other oil and fuel can we use with outrisking the turbine,as i understandthe cost of a new turbine will out way the few pound i can save but people must beflying with other fuel and oil .
thanks for any info.</p>
