Exactly. Bio-fuels simply will not sustain aviation at current levels. The only way to solve this is to drastically reduce air travel down to sustainable levels. Which might be "rescue helicopters only" if push comes to shove.

If push comes to shove the rescue copters will take a back seat to the military. There is what should be, and what likely will be, and those things are often very different.

Well, the military is known to produce a lot of shit on their own, so their fuel supply should be safe, regardless of.
