Specifically says in the video not alcohol based. Wouldn't think they would be so confident in using it in unmodified aircraft if it was ethanol. The FAA would have difficulty certifying that because ethanol picks up water and also tends to eat some kinds of fuel lines. They'd probably require you replace the whole fuel system in some planes. Plus, tends to reduce fuel economy because of reduced BTUs. The test pilot got the same fuel burn as 100LL. Recall info about running aircraft engines on ethanol, I think they increased fuel burn by 20-30%.
