‘SAF - Sustainable Aviation Fuel’
Sustainable aviation fuel (SAF) is a lower-carbon alternative to normal jet fuel that can be used to fuel existing aircraft without making significant modications to the aircraft and its engines. SAF is being used by United, and has up to 85% lower Green House Gas (GHG) emissions than regular jet fuel (when counted by all of its emissions), all the way from how it’s made and delivered to the airport, to when its used (these are called ‘lifecycle emissions’). This does not mean United’s current use of SAF reduces its total carbon footprint by 85%, however. United still have a long way to go to achieve net zero by 2050, as currently only 0.1% of our overall fuel is SAF. (Source: United)
T’was a gloomy day for the arrival of N24988 as UA101 from Houston Texas (IAH/KIAH) seen slowing down 34R Sydney Airport (SYD/YSSY) at dawn on New Years Eve… A rather striking livery, even in the overcast conditions!! Even rolled ALL the way to the end of 34R to grab a shot in-front of the ATC tower!

Saturday, 10 July 2021: our temperature is 30C (feels like 30C) at 4:00 pm. Sunrise is at 5:33 am, and sunset is at 9:49 pm. Sunny.
"Saturday, July 10th 2021, 12:21 pm: 30-degree temperatures have surged back onto the Prairies, prompting heat warnings and setting the stage for potentially severe weather this weekend. In Alberta, the potential for severe weather will remain north of Calgary, but the city could see some non-severe storms. The main threats will be heavy rainfall, strong wind gusts and large hail." From the weather Network. The word 'hail' makes me nervous, as workmen started installing new siding on my home yesterday! Various neighbours suffered holes in their siding and broken windows during the recent severe storm, on 2 July 2021.
There were two special buildings that I wanted to go and see again, so yesterday, 9 July 2021, I did a fairly long drive (343 km total) NW of Calgary. This old barn is one of my favourites and was my first destination. I happened to notice that one of the owners was outside near his van, so I pulled my car around and asked if it would be all right if I took a few photos of his old barn. he told me I could walk anywhere in the field, but I was fine to just take photos from the road. What a delightful man he is! We had a lovely long chat and he told me that he was an Englishman, who had been living in the house for 33 years. He and his wife have a huge garden and grow all their vegetables. I couldn't help but think he reminded me of our late Naturalist, Gus Yaki, full of energy despite his years, hard-working and he sounded a fun guy. I asked if he had ever heard of Gus Yaki and he said, yes, he had, and had been on one of his nature tours further into the mountains. I did enjoy our chat.
My drive took me northwards, where I enjoyed seeing and photographing a few kinds of wildflowers and butterflies. The bright blue Damselflies were there in the hundreds, many of them mating. Not easy trying to get the camera lens to focus on these slender bodies, but I will post a few photos later on.
After spending some time there, including just a very short walk in burning heat, I drove a short way west and then started driving south, taking a route that I was very familiar with, but hadn't done for a long time. Very little to see bird-wise, in fact all day, but there were a few lovely old barns to see and photograph.
My last destination took me a little further west, to see the fairly recently rebuilt McDougall Memorial United Church, with the eastern edge of the Rockies for a backdrop. The original little church had been burnt to the ground by an arsonist, but eventually, enough funds were raised to recently rebuild this historic church, that I have loved for years. A few special T-shirts, toys and flowers had been placed on the fence and ground, to show support for Every Child Matters. This is in honour of the hundreds (thousands) of children who had been removed from their families and made to reside in Residential Schools run by the Catholic Church many years ago. These children suffered and died from various kinds of abuse and were buried in unmarked graves. This is all coming to light right now and, very slowly, these children's remains can be returned to their families.
After wandering around outside the church and photographing some of the wildflowers growing there, I climbed into my car and continued my long drive home. A drive like this makes my day - and totally knocks me out for a few hours.
