Air New Zealand jatropha flight, update 3

11-bio-747-500.jpg

Well, the biofuel test flight is now underway in Auckland. We have issued a statement about the flight, putting it into the broader context of the efforts of the aviation industry at a global level. The flight will last for another couple of hours and then there will be video and images available, with comments from the engineering team and flight crew on the performance of the fuel. We will update you as soon as we have these elements and link to some of the news stories from journalists on the ground – but that will be in a few hours from now.
