APPENDIX A Introduction This primer on alternative jet fuels presents a review and synthesis of available relevant infor- mation on alternative jet fuels and their adoption for use in the airport setting. The objective is to create a concise and comprehensive guide on the key aspects of alternative fuels that will affect airport application, thus providing a helpful reference guide to the airport manager and other stake- holders along the supply chain of alternative fuels. Each major topic is contained in a separate appendix. This primer provides a more detailed discussion of many of the topics contained in Sections 1 through 5 of the handbook that, for space and readability reasons, were not included in the hand- book body. In order to make it a useful reference document and consistent with the handbook, this primer repeats some of the information in the handbook. 71
