Sustainability message

The initiative says business aviation has cut carbon output by 40 percent in four decades and has been an early adopter of sustainability innovations. It names lightweight composites, winglets and satellite-based avionics as technologies that came from the industry, and says that in some cases new aircraft can be 15 to 30 percent more efficient than the ones they replace. The site describes a plan that includes eco-friendly aircraft with hybrid, electric and hydrogen-powered propulsion, smarter and more efficient routes, and sustainability practices that reduce the environmental impact of airports.

News

Recent items include the saving of the Indianapolis Downtown Heliport after a reversal by the FAA, a call by New Jersey lawmakers to preserve Andover-Aeroflex Airport, a youth aircraft apprenticeship launched by Textron Aviation in Kansas, a national study on the economic value of general aviation and regional scholarships for students. It also follows a bipartisan US Senate bill on sustainable aviation fuel investment and the SAF tax credit.
