Automotive Fuel

[marctucker35824]

It would be a great feature to be able to find airports that sell 93 octane automotive fuel for those of us that fly with a Rotax engine. Adding in price of fuel would be a bonus.

It sure would! Unfortunately, most "MOGAS" turns out to be 87 or 89 octane.

Of course, you can combine 1 gallon of 87 with 2 gallons of 93 and have 3 gallons of 91. Or 2 gallons of 87 and 1 gallon of 100 LL.

(Or if you have an 80 hp 912, you can run it on pure 87.)

This has been requested before. The problem is that there is no reliable database that exists that tracks the availability of mogas at airports, so Adventure Pilot has no way to provide that information.

Perhaps it could be done by allowing users to report that mogas is available at airports because they saw it or purchased it. It could be open to abuse but perhaps a validation algorithm be in place prior to adding it in some kind of AP database (something like if 5 different users report it, it's added and if like 2 or 3 dispute it, it is removed).
