Avgas

Post by EPApolice »

Does anyone know where I can get Avgas in the Sydney area. I will need a supply a few times a year.

You used to be able to get it at bankstown airport. Not sure if they are selling it to the public any more though.

the following 4T propaganda was brought to you by your local 2T lobby group...

"whats that youve got there?... a 450? "
yeah...
"what cereal packet did that come out of? "
huh?...

20L wont see me through a full track day, its using about a litre a lap. I only got four laps on Tuesday when it stopped on the track, I did waste a bit changing Jets etc and it was the longer track. I can get my hands on some 105 Cheetah I think the brand is.
Avgas is about 120 or something isint it. I will have to check on the long term supply of the 105 as I dont want to change over to that and then have to start again if I cant get that any longer.

Got a supply of Avgas now so all sorted. There is no way I will ever put an Ethanol blend fuel in any of my bikes regardless of how "great" it is.
