he's got you on that one frankJet Fuel.
The reason TWA800 could not possibly have been brought down by a non-existent spark in an empty and vented center fuel tank is because you could stick a match in the fuel at ground level and the match will go out.
The fuel needs to be shot through fuel injectors to ignite and then it burns at (I'm not looking it up) but I think it was 2,000 degrees.
If you are talking about LIQUID fuel you are correct but since the tank was largely empty it was fule VAPOR that detonated.
Nothing burns hotter than the love and passion that burns in my heart for my wife.
i'll have to take your word on itgonorrhea

Now see this MountainMan?
THIS is an example of pussy-whipped.
um, the last time pure O2 was used in a "cabin" was when the 3 Apollo astronauts diedUnknown at this point why there was ever a discussion of gasoline, since it's not used as jet fuel.
Depending on the formulation, it's either kerosene based or naphtha based. Its fumes WILL ignite, and it WILL burn hotter than coal, most especially if you have a fuselage full of nearly pure pressurized oxygen busting open, feeding it at or near ignition time.
This is why I said NEARLY pure. That's not accurate however, but it is quite a bit richer than what is generally in the atmosphere. In the tanks however it is pure. The oxygen feeds the fire in a crash much like it does a acetylene torch.um, the last time pure O2 was used in a "cabin" was when the 3 Apollo astronauts diedUnknown at this point why there was ever a discussion of gasoline, since it's not used as jet fuel.

Edit to add: The masks that drop down at impact are spewing pure oxygen as well, when the feed tubing in the fuselage ruptures it can be quite nasty mixed with burning fuel.
