Shiping IsoPro fuel canisters by plane

[ProHoHater]

Am I going to blow up the plane or what? I need canisters in Hawaii, and they don't sell um here, and no one ships them out here.

I think if they catch you...you might be in trouble...dont quote me though the TSA regs are available online..

Its going to need a hazardous declaration most likely. Did you check with FedEx ? It could possibly have to go ocean depending on its class and Un number.

[ProHoHater]

I know its illegal, i just want to know if the freaking plane will blow up. I don't need that kind karma.

These guys on the big island had some fuel selections when we were there in august. I think they had isopro, I can't remember.

Well I found the MSDS and its hazardous. Ask FedEx and give them this info

Isopro fuel = 80/20 blend of isobutane and propane

IsoPropanol common name = isopropyl alcohol.

No you won't blow up the plane, but would be in deep shit if caught. They don't take kindly to terrorist shipping explosives these days. In the old days we used to fly with shit like that all the time.

That is why I like my MSR Dragonfly it will burn horse piss if need be.
