KLM used 50/50 blend for first scheduled biofuel flight
Source : flightglobal.com
KLM used a 50/50 blend of kerosene and biofuel derived from cooking oil in both engines of the Boeing 737-800 aircraft it operated today between Amsterdam Schiphol and Paris Charles de Gaulle. The biofuel was provided by US-based Dynamic Fuels and shipped to KLM's refuelling station in Amsterdam, said a KLM spokeswoman. KLM was able to secure permission for the one-off flight from the Dutch transport ministry, despite the fact that certifying body ASTM International has yet to finalise the preliminary approval it gave in early June for the use of hydrotreated renewable jet (HRJ) fuel in commercial aviation. However, the 200 scheduled biofuel flights that KLM plans to begin in September are dependent on securing final ASTM approval, said the spokeswoman.
