I’d love to see that “sustainability” of the cost of producing that.
Plus putting modern engines on them not 1960s tech afterburner turbojets is going to cut fuel burn in half if not more. This is why they on their website show trans Pacific flights nonstop something the original Concorde could not do. They are expecting the range to double at least and with custom high density SAF add 15-20% more range due just to the fuel itself. That’s LAX to Sydney or San Francisco to Tokyo ranges. Which they show in then web information.
So the cost of $3 on a JFK to London is not 655 each way it’s half that with new engines.
Oil is running out eventually and aircraft need high density liquid fuels the sooner we move to SAF the better it is for our species. The Permian will be drilled and tapped out in less than 2 decades at the current drop rates. I should know I drill there in the regular as a petroleum geo.
Exxon bought the remainder of the tier one acreage for Pioneer for cheap for a reason. PNR had already drilled out with megapads the prime tier one lands. I spent 5 years with PNR and 5 more with Exxon doing just that. I can DD drill the wolfcamp in my sleep literally thousands of wells under my hat. We need to be thinking about saving some of that valuable resource for plastics,fertilizers,medications, lubricants and everything else that makes modern life work.
