A broad-based coalition of aviation industry organizations and companies along with sustainable fuel providers has appealed to the Biden administration to include financial incentives aimed at spurring the production of sustainable aviation fuel (SAF) as part of the recently unveiled American Jobs Plan legislation. This group includes alphabet organizations such as NBAA, GAMA, NATA, AIA, and AOPA; major U.S. airlines American, Delta, Southwest, and United; airframers Airbus, Boeing, and Gulfstream; fleet operators FedEx and NetJets; airport associations; pilot associations; the Regional Airline Association; SAF producers and distributors; and aircraft engine makers.
