PANAMA CITY, Fla. -- Some of America’s best fighter jets can soar without using a drop of oil for fuel. The Navy’s EA-18 Growler fighter jet can fly more than 1,100 miles per hour. It costs $68 million to build, and it’s flying on 100 percent bio-fuel, made from things like kitchen grease and plant seeds. In 2009, Mabus committed the Navy to 50 percent usage of alternative fuels by the year 2020. “I hope that one day all diesel vehicles are operated with our fuel, I hope that all commercial jets are operated with our fuel,” McDonald said.
