I have just returned from a trip north in SA and paid the equivalent of $2.80 per litre (including callout) for avgas. If I had bought mogas in the town, the difference would have paid for my accomodation. I would be interested to find out avgas prices in outback places. On a long trip, it makes a huge difference to the budget.

I must have been lucky as I "only" paid $3.00 at Tillmouth Well (July)006_laugh.gif.0f7b82c13a0ec29502c5fb56c616f069.gif. However the alternative there is a long push (after a VERY quiet landing)

 

Tindal $1.96

 

Halls Creek $1.995

 

Cunnumulla $2.07

Geez - :heart: loved the morse code translator. Reminded me of my radio trainig days in signals :thumb_up: (Army) at Watsonia back in the early seventies. 011_clap.gif.c796ec930025ef6b94efb6b089d30b16.gif Got up to about 18 words a minute (send and receive) as I recall. Good days. 018_hug.gif.8f44196246785568c4ba31412287795a.gif

Yeah I like morse code myself (as you can probably tell:thumb_up:), It certainly slows the mobile phone TEXT-a-holic's down when you right a text in the code.....006_laugh.gif.0f7b82c13a0ec29502c5fb56c616f069.gif but pretty slow going all the same when typing it on the phone:big_grin:

 

Cheers,

100LL at EGV

 

Hello

 

100LL at Eagle River is only about 6.00 a gallon. A liter is just over a quart and there is 4 quarts in a gallon. The US dollar is about X 1.5 to the Aus dollar.

Comparison.

 

Well that makes it 9.00 AUD per us gallon (equals 4 litres) ie. 2.25 dollars/litre. So not so very different. For affordability you have to relate it to average earnings, for each country, but that is a different consideration.. Nev..

"The US gallon (3.785 411 784 Litres) is divided into four liquid quarts (946.352 946 mL each)"

There seems to be a reluctance for the price of Avgas to fall at the moment.

 

We have seen a drop of around than 10 cents a litre yet the price of ULP has fallen over 70 cents! what price are other people paying a the moment for Avgas?
