A METHOD OF OPERATILNG A TURBOJET ENGINE WHICH COMPRISES FEEDING A MIXTURE OF AIR AND A HYDROGENATED POLY-ALICYCLIC HYDROCARBON MIXTURE HAVING A SPECIFIC GRAVITY OF FROM ABOUT 0.85 AT 30*C. TO ABOUT 1.5 AT 30*C. A POUR POINT NOT SUBSTANTIALLY ABOVE 5*C., AND A HEAT OF COMBUSTION OF AT LEAST 125,000 B.T.U.''S PER GALLON INTO THE COMBUSTION CHAMBER OF SAID ENGINE, SUBJECTING THE SAID MIXTURE TO COMBUSTION, PASSING THE RESULTING HOT GASES THROUGH A TRUBINE TO EXPAND THE SAME AND THEN PASSING THE HOT GASES INTO THE ATMPSPHERE BY WAY OF A NOZZLE, WHEREBY THRUST IS PRODUCED, THE SAID HYDROGENATED POLY-ALICYCLIC HYDROCARBON MIXTURE BEING THAT OBTAINED UPON HYDROGENATION OF AN UNSATURATED POLYALICYCLIC HYDROCARBON OBTAINED BY THE POLYMERIZATION OF ALICYCLIC DIENE MONOMER OF THE STRUCTURE
