The first commercial flight in the United States to use biofuel from used cooking oil is scheduled to fly on Wednesday (9/11/2011) from Seattle,by Alaska Airlines.

Therefore,Alaska Airlines to invest in alternative fuel as aircraft fuel,although more expensive dibading make use of fuel oil as usual.One gallon of biofuel from used cooking oil pegged at U.S.$ 17 when a gallon of regular gasoline is only U.S. $ 3 per gallon.Alaska Airlines will only operate 75 flights with biofuel.

The plant also is conducting an experiment to make fuel for the United States Air Force.
The Boeing aircraft company also supports the development of biofuel and said overall industry are really serious about looking for alternative fuels.
