SPAA president Mike Tibbert has called for Scotland to become one of the leaders in greener air travel, including the production of sustainable aviation fuel (SAF).

Tibbert called for Scotland to become the “test bed” for new types of aircraft which use hydrogen and electric power, as well as to help “fill the gap” in SAF production.
“As Scotland moves away from carbon intensive oil and gas production, sites such as Grangemouth and St Fergus offer excellent options to produce SAF and establish Scotland as a leading producer,” said Tibbert during his speech to the Scottish Passenger Agents’ Association annual dinner in Glasgow.
