SUSTAINABLE AVIATION FUELS The aviation industry is committed to the development of cleaner jet fuels that are commercially viable and generate lower carbon emissions over the ‘life cycle’. Over the past two years, there have been exciting developments in this area, with a number of trial flights successfully using jet fuel blends using, for example, algae and other plant-based oils. Qantas is working with key scientific and industry partners to look at the commercial production of sustainable aviation fuel in Australia. In July 2009, Qantas became a member of the Sustainable Aviation Fuel Users Group (SAFUG), a global coalition of airlines convened by Boeing that is working to accelerate the commercialisation of sustainable aviation fuels.
SUPPORTING COMMUNITY GROUPS The Qantas Group supports many environmental sustainability initiatives in the community. Qantas made an initial donation of $2 million to the Qantas Foundation Environmental Sustainability Fund which is being used to support ‘not-for-profit’ organisations including Landcare Australia, Clean Up Australia Day, Great Barrier Reef Foundation, Flora and Fauna International and the Centre for Sustainability Leadership.

INFLIGHT HEALTH CARE
DEFIBRILLATORS AND PHYSICIAN’S KITS Qantas has achieved worldwide recognition for its use of inflight cardiac defibrillators. In 1991, the airline was the first in the world to install defibrillators on both its international B747 and B767 aircraft. In 1999, Qantas then set a new standard for Australian domestic aviation medicine, when it installed cardiac defibrillators on all of its B737 aircraft. Defibrillators, which are now installed across the Qantas mainline fleet, enable fast assessment and management of passengers who have had a cardiac arrest. Also on-board Qantas aircraft are extensive physician kits containing medical equipment and medications. Qantas Customer Service Managers undergo a wide-ranging training program to ensure they are confident and capable of using the defibrillator and the physician’s kit in the case of a cardiac emergency onboard.
MEDLINK  In October 2000, Qantas helped to set a global standard for the industry when it introduced a new service on international and domestic flights enabling inflight crew to contact on-ground physicians during a medical emergency. Provided by MedLink, the emergency telemedicine centre of MedAire in Phoenix, USA, the service enables direct consultation with certified emergency physicians at any time during a flight almost anywhere in the world. Crew can contact the hospital-based medical service from the aircraft by satellite communications or radio. MedLink communications officers gather basic information on the problem and pass it on to an emergency room physician to talk directly with the crew. The physician can then assess the situation and recommend a management plan for the operating crew on the aircraft, using the physician’s kit if necessary.
