I just filled my tank for $40.

E85 is about 80% as efficient as Unleaded. There's usually so little a price difference that I fill up with Unleaded, but these days I'm using E85 & I can't remember why I didn't use it all the time. I'm paying half as much as I'd be paying if I was using Unleaded.

Why has the roll-out of #unleaded fuel for general #aviation been so slow and contentious? My colleague @willguisbond has a deep dive on the subject in The Air Current: https://theaircurrent.com/general-aviation/unleade-avgas-firestorm-faa-gami-swift-ceh/

@Guinnessy To add to that, the technical and regulatory problems have now been solved with the development and FAA-approval of Avgas G100UL as a drop-in replacement for Avgas 100LL for all spark-ignition aviation piston engines. Yes, all of them.

The remaining problems are logistics and political will.

Just checking... If a petrol station is advertising their Unleaded at 0.0 cents per litre, that means they're giving it away free right?? 😝 ⛽#FuelWatch #Petrol #Unleaded

Small airplanes are finally switching to unleaded fuel

Cessnas, Pipers and other small airplanes are on the verge of a historic shift to unleaded fuel.

Super stoked about this! FINALLY, unleaded 100 octane gasoline is FAA-certified for general aviation aircraft. We’ve been waiting for this for 50 years and it’s finally here!
