This is interesting, a bio ""drop-in fuel", which meant that no modification to the aircraft or its engines was required before it could be used".
Unlike other aviation bio fuels in the pipeline, this one "could" keep the cost down and the hassle of system conversion and associated down times. Just a question as usual of mass production.

1. Captain, if the problem is not entered into the technical logbook.........then the aircraft does not have a problem.
2. And, if you have time to write the fault on a napkin and attach to it to the yoke.........you have time to write it in the tech log....see point 1.
