Cost of 100LL??

[GeneralT001]

I live in Newfoundland and the cost of a liter of 100LL at St Johns airport is $3.79/lt...that works out to about $14 Cdn per gallon?? Thats nuts!!

Are things better in the good ole US of A??

Ouch!  At my home base in the Oklahoma City area, the current price is $5.10 a gallon.  I can hop over to a small airport about 20 NM away and get it for $4.75.

It varies wildly in the US, but nothing like that. At busier airports that deal in lots of traffic, $7-$8 a gallon is not uncommon. But there’s pockets of the country where AVGAS can be had for $4.50 a gallon. I filled up last week for $4.65 a gallon…which is tolerable.

 When I’m on long cross countries, I do look for gas under $5.50. That’s kind of my fence line for price. I won’t fly out of my way for cheap gas unless it’s a handful of minutes that saves me $50.

I’m based Wilmington De..$8.50 gallon..ouch

$4.98 at KCVC earlier today, I always tell folks that gas is the cheapest part of ownership.

I'm in the SF Bay area and 100LL fuel around the area runs from a low of $4.90 to a high of $11.35.  Definitely worth shopping around.

Southern California is running around $6/gal, but you can find $5.75, with a low of $5.15

[MatthiasArnold]

Well, you did not ask for AVGAS prices in Europe

If, you would consider prices all over North America as pretty affordable

The last I bought was $5.60 in Lower Alabama. It seems to be less expensive on eastern NC.

[Kelpro999]

Over priced, of course

I bought four six gallon jugs and tanker fuel back when I go buy an area airport that has very reasonable fuel prices

You live in St. John’s Newfoundland???

We bought a plane and flew it back from the Deer Lake area to Winnipeg in May this year. We thought the fuel was insane on the island as well, but I guess you don't have a lot of options! Recently in the US we were getting about $4.90 per gallon at the lowest, that was in KS and SD. In Winnipeg the smaller airports are about $2.10 per litre, up to closer to $2.75 at St Andrews and Winnipeg.

That's crazy and a real shame. $5 to $6 is probably average here in the US. The price difference is nearly all tax - are you saying you're not getting good value from that additional $8/gal?

As long as they don’t dent my nose wheel, which I protect dearly.

4F2 has it for $4.17/gal about a 50 min flt for me but got to run the engine anyway might as well tanker up.
