Mogas to be Available at AirVenture

July 21, 2016 – Just confirmed this week, EAA and Basler Flight Service finalized a plan to make mogas available to aircraft on the Wittman Regional Airport grounds, if that aircraft has a valid auto fuel STC or can use mogas as part of experimental category certificate.

“This has been a long time coming and we’re very pleased to finally add this option for aircraft owners who can use it,” said Sean Elliott, EAA’s vice president of advocacy and safety. “It’s been a much-requested resource, so we hope those aircraft owners take advantage of this opportunity.”

Mogas can be requested much as other flightline fuel requests at Wittman during AirVenture. Basler Flight Services personnel will deliver mogas in a specially marked truck (as shown here) in aircraft parking and camping areas north of Boeing Centennial Plaza (including homebuilt parking and the North 40) from 8 a.m. until 2 p.m. each day, then deliver to areas south of Boeing Centennial Plaza from 2:30-5 p.m.

To receive mogas via this delivery method, standard category aircraft owners must show evidence of a valid auto fuel STC with placard at fuel-fill location. For experimental category aircraft, the aircraft must be properly placarded as experimental.
