Abstract
A method is provided for operating an aircraft. During this operating method, a flight plan is received for an aircraft. The flight plan schedules a flight for the aircraft to fly from a first airport to a second airport. The aircraft includes an engine and a fuel delivery system with a first fuel reservoir and a second fuel reservoir. The fuel delivery system is configured to selectively deliver a first fuel from the first fuel reservoir and/or a second fuel from the second fuel reservoir to the engine for combustion. The first fuel reservoir contains a quantity of the first fuel and the second fuel reservoir contains a quantity of the second fuel at the first airport. A fuel schedule for the aircraft is determined to use during the flight. The fuel schedule is determined based on whether the second airport includes refueling capability for the first fuel and/or the second fuel.
