Sustainable Fuel Powers Flights to Geneva
While demand for sustainable alternative jet fuel is tiny now, publicity about the benefits will help promote its use.

On Saturday, the business aviation world came together as it headed for EBACE in Geneva, demonstrating the benefits of sustainable alternative jet fuel (SAJF) during flights to participate in the show's static display. Thirteen business aircraft fueled up with SAJF at TAG Farnborough Airport in the UK, while others took on SAJF supplied by Avfuel in the U.S. at Republic Airport near New York City, and Air BP at Caen-Carpiquet Airport in France and Arlanda Airport in Stockholm. World Fuel Services supplied 75,000 liters of SAJF for the Farnborough event, but the biofuel made by Gevo had to be shipped to the UK from the U.S.
