Environmental concerns spur jet fuel sales

Feb 14, 2008 (newstodate): At the annual World Economic Forum, at Davos, world leaders and trend-setters meet to discuss issues including environmental concerns and sustainable development.
Among the immediate beneficiaries from this is ExecuJet Switzerland that provides fuelling of the host of business jets carrying the concerned personalities.
This year ExecuJet Switzerland handled over 300 movements and sold a record amount of fuel, exceeding last year's fuel sale by more than 150,000 liters.
Almost all aircraft arriving from the US were larger models such as Gulfstream, Global Express and Challenger aircraft.
-The larger aircraft need a greater quantity of fuel. It is clear that the trend in business aviation is for an increase in the size of business jets for the longer distance flights and so fuel quantities requested for each aircraft will increase, says Nicole Gut, Manager FBO Zurich at the company's website.
