I also don't think people or fuel show up on radar.
Perhaps the wiring if any.

The radar operators at Mountain Home Air Force Base, Idaho, have told me
they could see individual skydivers after they left the plane, but then we
were only ten miles away at 11,000 MSL.  There's very little metal in a
modern skydiving rig, certainly far less than on a Velocity.

Just thought I'd toss my anecdote on the pile.  :-)
Mebbe they were just pullin' me leg.

I'll buy ten miles.
