Unleaded avgas at Sebring hits $8.10; UL94 averages lower. Starlink sparks FAA questions. Cessna tech issues draw expert advice.

94UL fuel tank

How much for that unleaded?

Since Aviation Consumer has covered no-lead aviation piston fuels, I was surprised at what I saw recently. I stopped at Sebring, Florida (KSEF), the first airport I have seen offering self-service Swift Fuel UL94 unleaded gas. I can’t use UL94 in my Continental IO-550,of course, but I was surprised at the price: $8.10 per gallon! Is this the going price? At that price, I can’t see a lot of owners getting UL94; MOGAS might be a better alternative.
