Avgas 100LL is a petrol specially designed aircraft with spark-ignition piston engines. Avgas 100LL is a refinery blended product with the addition of a blue color. The most important characteristic for a fuel intended for piston engines is the value of the anti-knock power or the octane index. In fact, “100” represents the octane number (Engine Octane Index: MON), while the Research Octane Index (RON) used to qualify road petrol as SP98 rises to 130. “LL” stands for octane content low lead.

JET A-1 is an aviation fuel known as “kerosene,” suitable for most jet aircraft. It has a minimum flash point of 38°C and a maximum freezing point of -47°C. It meets stringent international requirements, in particular those of the latest versions of AFQRJOS, the British DEF STAN 91-91 standard, the ASTM D1655 standard and the NATO F-35 specifications.
