FAA issues STC for Unleaded Avgas - Australian Flying

Search G100UL fuel is suitable for use with some O-360 engines, such as those fitted to some Piper Archers. (Steve Hitchen) Close× FAA issues STC for Unleaded Avgas 29 July 2021 The US Federal Aviation Authority (FAA) this week issued a supplemental type certificate (STC) for a 100-octane avgas that contains no lead additive. Developed by Oklahoma-based General Aviation Modifications Inc. (GAMI), the STC for G100UL is valid for certain Lycoming O-320, O-360 and IO-360 piston engines, and has been roundly applauded by the US GA community. “This STC is a positive step as we seek a fleet-wide solution for an FAA approved unleaded fuel,” said AOPA President and CEO Mark Baker. “We look forward to learning more about how the STC will be used, and next steps in expanding the number of engines that can safely take advantage of it.”

GAMI Awarded Long-Awaited STC For Unleaded 100-Octane Avgas

GAMI Awarded Long-Awaited STC For Unleaded 100-Octane Avgas After more than three decades of research and development, general aviation finally has an approved unleaded 100-octane fuel. At AirVenture on Tuesday, the FAA formally awarded a supplemental type certificate (STC) to General Aviation Modifications Inc., the Ada, Oklahoma, company that itself spent more than a decade developing a fuel it calls G100. The fuel would be a drop-in replacement for 100LL which, despite lead content, continues to be manufactured under ongoing dispensation from the Environmental Protection Agency. But it may be quite some time before the fuel is fielded in volume and GAMI says it will probably cost 60 to 85 cents more than 100LL does now.
