In simple terms, JP 54 is a term “originated” by the largest allocation holder of all times, “JP MORGAN”.
Over 60 years ago a “secret” major stake was invested into the USSR into distillate fuels. Birth of JP aviation. This fact is unpublished because of the implication$.
Now, enter other major corporations into the distillate industry such as Exxon, Shell, Chevron and the Name “JP” would be like Pepsi calling there soda a Coke. Therefore the birth of JET and JET “A”. The variance of the Jet Fuel blends is mainly “Freezing Points”. Hence a MIG or F18 must have higher freezing point for higher altitude flights, which is an advanced JP called “8″.
Names will evolve, the specifications can change, this is why concrete specifications are the “tell tale” evidence of what you are selling.
