General information
Special fuel for petrol engines: for piston engine airplanes only.
Avgas can occasionally be used for cars with petrol engines.
Do not store avgas next to residential areas or places of work. Stored fuels must be protected from the sun, be well ventilated, and in an area free of flammable materials. An extinguisher and sand must be positioned in close proximity.
Drums of avgas must be from a known origin, sealed, undamaged and not expired. A pilot has the right to refuse refuelling where there is any doubt as to the quality of the fuel.
Date of expiry, printed on the drum.
Do not store fuels with oils and/or tyres as a fire safety measure.
