The U.S. Air Force has flown the first successful test flight using a type of biofuel provided by Colorado’s Gevo Inc. The single-seat, twin-engine Air Force A-10 Thunder Bolt jet flew June 28 at Eglin Air Force Base in Florida. It was powered by a 50-50 blend of JP-8 and “alcohol-to-jet” (ATJ) fuel produced from isobutanol provided by Douglas County-based Gevo. The jet was flown through a series of flight test maneuvers.
