I agree. That having been said: Jets are already certified to fly on biofuel, it’s only a matter of airlines choosing to buy it instead of fossil fuel. (Yes, I know that it takes energy to make and transport biofuel, so it’s not totally carbon-neutral yet, but it would be a big step, especially since it does not sacrifice the capabilities of the airplanes, and doesn’t require any new technologies to be developed, or even any modifications to be made to airplanes). Yes, I would also love aviation to consist largely of zero-emission electric airplanes (ideally powered by hydrogen, since batteries only allow for short range) but I know we’re years away from that, at best.
