    Abstract: An aircraft system includes a main fuel tank configured to house primary fuel and a green fuel tank configured to house green fuel. The mixing apparatus is configured to mix the primary fuel and the green fuel to result in a predetermined ratio of mixed fuel. A controller selectively commands a first amount of primary fuel and a second amount of green fuel to result in the predetermined ratio of mixed fuel. The main aircraft engine is configured to operate, in a first main engine mode, with the primary fuel from the main fuel tank and to operate, in a second main engine mode, with the mixed fuel from the mixing apparatus based on commands from the controller. The auxiliary power source is configured to operate with at least a portion of the green fuel from the green fuel tank based on commands from the controller.
