The US Department of Transportation’s (DOT’s) Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) has released a proposed rule aimed at reducing greenhouse gasses emitted by most large aircraft flying in US airspace. The rule would require more fuel efficiency for new subsonic jet aircraft and large turboprop and propeller aircraft that are not yet certified and for new planes manufactured after January 1, 2028.
“Today is an important step forward in reducing the amount of greenhouse gas emissions released by our nation’s airplanes and ultimately reaching President Biden’s ambitious goal of net-zero emissions by 2050,” said the US Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg.
