MINOT AIR FORCE BASE, N.D. -- A B-52H Stratofortress waits on the flight line before engine performance testing Jan. 19. The B-52H engines are being tested to measure the difference between the use of JP-8 fuel, which the B-52 is accustomed to, verses Fischer-Tropsch, a synthetic fuel. The testing of synthetic fuel in cold weather is the last step in the certification process to help reduce Air Force dependence on imported fuel.
