FE Hoppy
Cool the Fuel at the Refinery and filter it, removing the Ice before it gets into the a/c. You think Jet is expensive now, wow. If an a/c can separate the water in flight (Ice), I think it could be done on the ground.
"Sticky Ice" ?? Teflon Pipes.
sky9 GE "Heats the Fuel" with a second pass through the FOHE.
bernd What of the GE architecture ? (HP) in front of their FOHE instead of downstream of it?
Phil Depending on who can make the better case, "It's the Fuel", "No it's the Trent", some compromise may involve all other types. But it's a hard sell, without a record of at least an "Incident" on another non 777-200ER a/c
I also think there are folks in China hoping for another incident that doesn't involve Chinese Fuel. (Consider the foul-up outcome in China?)
Bypass, Bypass, Bypass. (Blender included, no extra charge)
