In Singapore, The Straits Times reported that an Airbus’ A350-1000 aircraft will be using sustainable aviation fuel as part of its flying displays at Singapore Airshow 2024, which runs from February 20 to February 22. The fuel, which is supplied by Shell Aviation, is a 35% blend, using a mix of used cooking oil and tallow, or animal fats, with the rest being regular jet fuel. Airbus recently said in a statement that all its aircraft are already able to operate with up to 50% SAF – the current maximum allowable ratio.
