FAA Issues SAFO on Jet Fuel Contamination
After the FAA released a special airworthiness bulletin last year, more instances have occurred involving jet fuel contaminated with diesel exhaust fluid.

A new FAA Safety Alert for Operators warns operators of continuing instances of aircraft being refueled with jet fuel contaminated with diesel exhaust fluid (DEF). SAFO 18015 reiterates the information included in Special Airworthiness Information Bulletin (SAIB) HQ-18-08 that the agency issued in December 2017 after several instances of such contamination had occurred.
