+<br>It's bad enough for some propeller airplanes to be described as being powered by elastic band. Now the cynics might begin having a dig at [commercial aircraft](https://www.zoominfo.com/c/mission-newenergy/346542889) flying on everything from cooking oil to liquefied algae.<br>
+<br>With the civil  market under increasing pressure from rising oil costs and [ecological](https://www.proactiveinvestors.co.uk/companies/news/159346/mission-newenergy-delivers-maiden-biodiesel-production-to-global-oil-major-24476.html) legislation, the race is on to discover feasible [alternatives](https://www.google.com/search?kgmid=/m/0cqd_rb) to [standard kerosene](https://www.nasdaq.com/market-activity/ipos/overview?dealId=804419-65608) and these up until now appear to boil down to numerous types of [biofuel](https://www.abnnewswire.net/companies/en/31347/%E0%B8%9A%E0%B8%A3%E0%B8%B4%E0%B8%A9%E0%B8%B1%E0%B8%97-Mission-NewEnergy-%E0%B8%88%E0%B8%B3%E0%B8%81%E0%B8%B1%E0%B8%94.html/4).<br>
+<br>Not remarkably, the very first trials of [alternative fuel](https://www.pinterest.com.au/missionnewenergy/) were started by British air travel leader, Sir Richard Branson, whose Virgin Atlantic began London to Amsterdam flights with minimal [biofuel](https://stocktwits.com/symbol/MNEL) use in 2008. This was rapidly followed by Lufthansa and Air New Zealand who each used various blends of regular fuel and bio derivatives consisting of some from made from [jatropha](https://www.businessnews.com.au/Company/Mission-NewEnergy) which can grow in soil considered too bad for growing mainstream foodstuffs.<br>
+<br>[Jatropha](https://www.pinterest.com.au/missionnewenergy/) is a genus of [roughly](https://www.bloomberg.com/profile/company/MNELF:US) 175 succulent plants, shrubs and trees (some are deciduous, like [Jatropha curcas](https://www.investing.com/equities/mission-newenergy-ltd-company-profile)), from the household Euphorbiaceae.<br>
+<br>In 2007 [Goldman Sachs](https://www.nasdaq.com/market-activity/ipos/overview?dealId=804419-65608) cited [Jatropha curcas](https://www.google.com/search?kgmid=/m/0cqd_rb) as one of the best candidates for future [biodiesel](https://biodieselmagazine.com/articles/felda-global-buys-missions-kuantan-port-plant-for-11-5-million-9053) production. It is resistant to drought and insects, and produces seeds including 27-40% oil.<br>
+<br>Recently, US aerospace giant Boeing, Brazilian aerial major Embraer and the Sao Paulo state Research Support Foundation moved to [perform](https://www.crunchbase.com/organization/mission-newenergy) research study and advancement into the use of biofuels to power jet airliners. It was reported that Brazilian airlines Azul, Gol, TAM and Trip would function as strategic consultants for the task.<br>
+<br>The current airline company to begin exploring with new fuels is the Alaska Air Group which has carried out internal US flights utilizing a mix of 80 % petroleum based fuel and 20% [biofuel](https://www.zoominfo.com/c/mission-newenergy/346542889) made from cooking oil. This mix, it is declared, can cut hazardous emissions by 10%.<br>
+<br>One truly motivating advancement has been the relocation far from biofuels which compete head on with food consumers therefore [preventing](https://www.investing.com/equities/mission-newenergy-ltd-company-profile) a rate spiral. Not so long earlier, a surge in usage of [biofuels](https://www.zonebourse.com/cours/action/MISSION-NEWENERGY-LIMITED-8557641/) in cars triggered a spike in maize prices as US farmers diverted excessive corn to fuel processing.<br>
+<br>Hopefully in the future, [airlines](https://www.crunchbase.com/organization/mission-newenergy) and motorists will focus [biofuel](https://www.marketscreener.com/quote/stock/MISSION-NEWENERGY-LIMITED-178469/company/) intake on non-food sources such as [jatropha](https://www.zoominfo.com/c/mission-newenergy/346542889) and algae.
