Business Aviation Insider Quick Poll: Sustainable Aviation Fuel
Sustainable aviation fuel (SAF) is a safe and reliable alternative to Jet A that helps reduce CO₂ output without negatively affecting aircraft performance, powerplant manufacturer warranties or engine maintenance programs. When blended with petroleum-based Jet A at prescribed levels, sustainable aviation fuels meet the same ASTM standard (D1655) as traditional jet fuel and are indistinguishable from the conventional petroleum-based product.
