The green flame is because of the prescence of Cupper (Cu++). a red-violet one can be because of sodium (Na+).
You forget that the Excalibur had a M/AM engine, although it wasn't efficient enough to have unlimited afterburn.Originally posted by Ghost

Every Confed fighter we've ever flown has had a bussard intake and unlimited cruising fuel... the only fighter that *didn't*, IIRC, was the Dralthi I, which had an atomic powerplant.

I find it a bit strange that the fuel indicator always decreases slightly during flight in WC1/2 - even without afterburner use.
