A B-52 Stratofortress takes off Dec. 15, 2006, from Edwards Air Force Base, Calif., on a flight-test mission using a blend of synthetic fuel and JP-8 in all eight engines. This is the first time a "Buff" has flown using a synfuel-blend as the only fuel on board. In September, the Air Force successfully flew a B-52 with two-engines using the synfuel-blend. The B-52 test flights at Edwards are the initial steps in the Air Force process to test and certify a synthetic blend of fuel for its aviation fleet. (Photo by Tech. Sgt. Eric M. Grill)
