When fuel oil is "cracked" to make gasoline it gives oS several gases including one called butene. Butcne did little good for itself or anybody else until chemists smart lads discovered that when processed into something totally different and combined with gasoline It produced a fuel which fairly dripped iso-octane. Now iso-octane is the "it" of gasoline the item which makes interna! combustion en gines get up and go places. It's condensed power. This new synthetic gasoline means an airplane need not car ry so much weight in fuel to develop the same horsepower in its motors. Instead it can carry more passengers more express more pay-load.
