Aviation Aircraft Fuel Supply at Abbotsford Airport (YXX)

Just Aviation at Abbotsford International Airport (YXX) celebrates state-of-the-art fuel service systems, with a focus on JET A-1 fuel. Our governance includes sophisticated management and distribution technologies, optimizing efficiency and advancing sustainable practices.

Jet A-1 fuel is the fuel of choice for business jets, designed to handle the extremes of high-altitude aviation in any climate. Adhering to stringent standards such as DEF STAN 91-91 and ASTM D1655, Jet A-1 ensures top-tier quality and reliability. Serving as the primary fuel for aircraft propulsion, Jet A-1 delivers approximately 30% lower fuel consumption compared to alternatives, fostering significant cost savings. This kerosene-derived fuel finds compatibility with a diverse spectrum of jet aircraft, catering to both civilian and military needs. With a boiling range extending from 150°C to 250°C, it features a flashpoint exceeding 38.0ºC (100ºF), while its maximum freeze point registers at -47.0ºC.

Business jet operators recognize the critical role of fuel selection in achieving efficiency. Optimal fuel choices directly impact operating costs and range capabilities. By using the correct fuel, engines perform consistently, enhancing reliability and safety. The risk of engine damage is minimized, resulting in reduced maintenance expenses. Strict adherence to safety standards ensures overall flight reliability. Furthermore, prioritizing cleaner fuels contributes to environmental sustainability. Compliance with approved fuel types is essential for regulatory adherence and airworthiness. Additionally, understanding fuel properties in cold weather conditions prevents operational disruptions caused by freezing or wax-related issues.
