Frozen Water as fuel?

Post by POMMReg »

Notice on some '50s Minor rf60 logbooks "I.C.E." is given
as fuel type.

Must be an abbv. for something, but I have NO idea what.

Any ideas please(?).
Further investigations uncovered it was an inside job!!

Is it not "Internal Combustion Engine"?

That was my first thought - not fuel type, but means of motive power.
Cheers,
Michael
