Tender: Safety implication of biofuels in aviation
The European Aviation Safety Agency (EASA) has launched a call for tenders to study safety implications of biofuels in aviation. The study is intended to provide better understanding of the behaviour of ethanol-blended fuels in an aviation environment. The investigation shall focus on the safety implications on aircraft/engine operation and on tanks, fuel pipes, seals and fuels systems of spark-ignited, piston engine-powered aircraft and engines when operated with fuel containing bioethanol.For further information, please contact: European Aviation Safety Agency Procurement and Contracts Section Postfach 10 12 53 D-50452 Cologne Tel. +49 221 89 99 00 00 Fax +49 221 89 99 09 99 E-mail: tenders@easa.europa.eu To see the full details of the call, please consult the following web address: http://ted.europa.eu/udl?uri=TED:NOTICE:271744-2008:TEXT:EN:HTML(opens in new window)
