I seem to remember that, back in the '60s,

Rover made their turbine-powered LeMans racer run on powdered coal as a demonstration to prove the flexible fuel merits of turbine engines. The results were interesting, but it suffered a huge loss in power and top speed. I hope no one tries that with a turbine powered airplane when I'm on board.
