North Carolina FBO Is Latest To Offer SAF
Sustainable aviation fuel (SAF) makes another rare appearance in the Eastern U.S.

Koury Aviation at North Carolina’s Piedmont Triad International Airport (GSO) has become one of the first FBOs on the U.S. East Coast to sell sustainable aviation fuel (SAF), receiving two truckloads consisting of 14,600 gallons of the blended fuel this week. Each of the loads of drop-In fuel produced by Neste represents a 19 tonne reduction in CO2 emissions versus standard jet fuel.
