Aeronautics News: Mexico Aeronautics Industry Makes History Through Biofuel Development

There's been a revolution in the aerospace industry this month. Now, thanks to AeroMexico and Boeing, transcontinental commercial flights will be able to fly with a smaller carbon footprint. Why? Well, Aeromexico and Boeing have made history by accomplishing the first transcontinental commercial flight that uses biocombustible fuel exclusively. This biofuel development was created with a mixture of 70 percent jet fuel and 30 percent biofuel from the oilseed plant Jatropha Curcas, which is grown in several regions of the world including Mexico.
