Page Field Airport
Starting yesterday, there is a new fuel choice at my local airport, Page Field in fort myers. Automobile gas or more commonly know in the aviation world as Mogas is now for sale at FMY. At the time of this writing the price for self service mogas is $4.01, while the price for SS 100LL (Avgas, the conventional fuel for piston aircraft) is $3.60. The SE regional average is $4.84, while our international airport, RSW, has full service 100LL for $5.23.
The price for mogas is just a bit more than avgas at FMY but remember, Page Field has below average fuel prices.
Light Sport Aircrafts and certain makes and types of aircraft, like the popular Cessna 150 can run on either AvGas or MoGas.
The fuel at Page Field is 95 octane and more importantly is ethanol free. You can fuel up 24 hours a day at FMY.
Wikipedia has a good article on the history and different types of Aviation Fuel: wikipedia.org/wiki/Avgas.
