Los Angeles CA (SPX) Jul 09, 2024
A team assembled in Germany to assess an aircraft engine's compatibility with future fuels, beginning with a baseline test using traditional Jet-A fuel. This kerosene-based fuel ensured the V2500 engine was functioning properly before the real test commenced. Next, the system was purged, and the focus shifted to evaluating the engine's performance with HEFA-SPK, a sustainable aviation fuel
