Abstract

A method (2000) of determining an overall fuel allocation for a plurality of missions carried out by at least one aircraft (1), the missions being supplied with fuel from a fuel source (70) comprising amounts of a first fuel (72) and a different second fuel (74), is disclosed. The method comprises obtaining (2002) an initial proposed fuel allocation for each mission; performing (2004) an overall optimisation in which the proposed fuel allocation of at least one mission is modified within the constraints of the total available first and second fuels from the fuel source to maximise an overall utility value over all missions, each mission being associated with a respective mission utility value for a given fuel allocation, the mission utility value being determined according to at least one of a predicted contrail outcome and a predicted local air quality outcome; and determining (2006) the overall fuel allocation for the plurality of missions based on the overall optimisation.
