Generally the laws state that when you buy airplane fuel you must have it put into a metal container (no your cars fuel tank doesn't count).

Like Rob x-7 said, you might be able to find someone at a smaller/local airport or someone that works late who will let it slide and let you pump it into your tank.

I would say your chances are slim to none buying jet fuel at JFK

or LGA.

The local airport around here sells it to us in 5 gallon containers or big drums of it. My brother always went down to buy it when he went to the drags. But he became friends with all the guys down there se they would cut some prices for him. So it is cool to run it in most cars because his was an sr20de with 100 shot of NOS. just needed the extra octane to burn that junk in there.
