Reid-Hillview Airport Launching Sales Of G100UL

Swift’s UL94 currently arrives in San Jose by rail car with capacity of 27,000 gallons, and is cheaper to refine and still sells for $7.59/gallon (Self Serve) and $7.89/gallon from the county’s truck… Coming by tanker truck from Louisiana will add a little more than $1/gallon to a higher refinery cost, and fuel will likely cost more than $8.50/gallon… I suspect some 100 octane users will continue to fly 30 miles to get 100LL for $5.40/gallon, but we shall see… I agree this is hopeful step for GAMI, but initial reception may not be as enthusiastic as some have hoped for… I suspect flight schools using Swift UL94 will want to continue with that, as all of their fleets are compatible with it.
