For y'all desiring an M1 tank or other crew served weapons system, just a reminder; you'll need someone to either drive or shoot it if you plan on firing while moving. But I suppose if one can afford an M1, then one can also afford the maintainance and personnel to support it. Those things get really crappy fuel milage, by the way.
My choice: a BAR in mint condition.

The SR-71 burns JP-7 which is similar to kerosene but not really flammable without a catalyst (Oxygen is not a catalyst for JP-7).
According to my quick research, a SR-71's engine is started with a puff of tetraethyl borane.
EDIT: So, in conclusion, the area under a Blackbird probably isn't a no-smoking zone. There would be no danger of JP-7 igniting. As a matter of fact, it might extinguish that person's cig.

I had read about the sr71 and originally it was started with a big block buick engine. They used it to get the engine up to speed and than iginted it with something. I'll have to dig the book out see what it said exactly again. later I believe it was started with a machine that was basically a HUGE air compressor. I'll dig it out tomorrow and see what i can find. about the jp 7, I know it has a really high flash point I doubt it'd fire it up, but I'd still stay away with a cigarette
