SUSTAINABLE FLIGHT THE FALCON WAY
Our crew chief on biofuels In his most recent Crew Chief Blog, Jean Kayanakis tackles a subject of concern for everyone who flies a Falcon: reducing their carbon footprint. Fortunately, Falcons are among the most efficient jets flying and higher efficiency equals lower emissions. Better yet, Falcons can utilize biofuels (SAF for Sustainable Aviation Fuel), which can reduce carbon emissions by up to 80%! Dassault is doing its part by flying demo aircraft to trade shows, such as EBACE and NBAA on biofuel blends, and will be undertaking more such operations in the future.
