If the RC-1 was supposed to use methane instead of jet fuel...[edit]
Why would a global jet fuel price crisis affect the development? 213.216.70.34 (talk) 10:55, 30 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Beats me; I came here to ask the same thing. The only thing I can think of is that all fuels, including methane, would have similarly increased in price. Sincerely, SamBlob (talk) 10:49, 1 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Two reasons: 1) only one customer would be using methane, the others would still use jet fuel, and 2) most carbohydrate prices are proxies for oil, and go up and down the same way. Maury Markowitz (talk) 22:50, 28 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]
