Why would you need your Peterson STC with G100UL?

Thanks, I'll contact them.

I have my reasons for CFI-S. I'm sure you understand that everyone's situation, needs, and mission are not the same. Just this year alone, thus far, I have had call for my CFI-S to transition train (three pilots), help certificated pilots get time for insurance (2 pilots), and do a seaplane...

Petersen's STC's for Auto Fuel are. Here is a snippet from there website "Auto fuel STCs were developed using fuel blended to ASTM specification D-439. D-439 has now been superseded by D-4814. The difference between the two specs is in the test methods outlined. D-4814 added test methods to be...

Regaridng GAMI and G100UL. I met up with Tim Roehl, president of GAMI, and we had a somewhat lengthy conversation regarding the state of G100UL. Or more accurately, I asked simple questions and Tim elaborated extensively on things. Bottom line, the FAA is seemingly, deliberately, holding...

Not wanting to enter some online debate here. There's way too much of that out there. Here's an article on Ethanol in fuel that explains what I was stating and more psu.edu. Ethanol, like (all?) other alcohols absorb moisture. Ethanol is used as an oxygenate (with adverse side effects no one...

No MOGAS in CA, but several around Oakland, and one elsewhere that sell UL94 from Swift (from flyunleaded.com)

Been going since 1984. It's crazy busy here (OSH). busier than last year for sure. I've thought the same as some have predicted with fuel being what it is, but I'm not sure we won't break records this year.

And avgas isn't either MON or RON. It is a different method for aviation fuels. It is closer to RON in practical terms however, so 100LL is really more like 93 or 94 in AKI terms. This is another reason why mixing 100LL with lower octane Auto Fuel to supposedly get a higher (ostensibly...

That's a great idea!! I'll be at Oshkosh this coming week; speaking again with Gami about G100UL fuel and listing locations as they become available on flyunleaded.com. Now that it has been approved on an STC with an AML (Approved Model List) basis, it needs to be available, and I'm sure they...

Yep, totally agree. If we had G100UL we'd be done. It would be everywhere, and everything could use it safely. Some folks will still use auto fuel because they can and it will likely, most often, be less expensive. But with G100UL, ubiquitous, no ethanol issues, no old gas issues, etc. It's...

I went after my CFI-S (CFI Sport Pilot) rating this past spring but ran into some issues with the school and their planes. I have my two written tests completed (CFI-S and FOI) but need to complete the training, schedule, and take the practical. It's been hard finding schools with Light Sport...

MOGAS used to be a spec, and you could rely on the Octane being at least 91 AKI, non-ethanol. But most often these days, the term is used for fields that obtain and sell auto fuel that does not meet the original MOGAS spec, but is nevertheless fine for use in aircraft with auto fuel STC's, or...

Hi all. I am the curator of this site (flyunleaded.com), and UT9 is not listed because we were told you have to be a member of their club to buy MOGAS there. If you have information to the contrary, please share, and I'll get it listed right away. The site has been recently updated with a lot...
