Airbus’ most popular aircraft takes to the skies with 100% sustainable aviation fuel
An A321neo took off today from Airbus’ headquarters in Toulouse, France with both of its engines powered by 100% unblended SAF. Since the end of February, the aircraft is being closely followed by a data-collecting aeroplane with the mission to gather information on the non-CO2 emissions and the creation of contrails.

Does the exhaust smell like french fries?
Let's hope so.
let me know when they can refuel in Rwanda with SAF
The single pilot/crewmember they propose can hand pump it themselves...LOL
How much does SAF cost compared to Jet-A1? Does SAF produce the same fuel economy as Jet-A1? Don't hate me for asking, I'm asking for a friend. ;-)
Right now, SAF is about double the price of Jet A1 but the fuel economy is about the same. With further development, and particularly if there were to be a carbon tax of sorts, there could easily be price parity or an economic advantage to SAF, so many entities (airlines, Department of Defense, oil companies) are seriously looking into it.
Ridiculous. The climate Nazis are out of control.
