ATIS - Avgas Prices

[Alastair]

Is there any point in the Avgas price league table under ATIS since over 50% of the prices quoted are over one month old and there are nineteen changes posted which have not been added to the table?

[Bathman]

I would say so.

It does scare me at bit at the moment as it seems to be going up, up, up.

I wished more people stocked UL91 mind you

The update is only just over a week out of date. Perhaps the VOLUNTEER that maintains it has been busy? I suggest you ask for a refund.

Perhaps the fact that Alastair's airfield is the most expensive GA field on the list has some bearing on his opinion....?

[Alastair]

Tall-Guy, The fact that the airfield where I used to be manager is high on the list was not the reason for my comments.Given the never ending changes (mainly increases) in Avgas prices a list where over 50% of the prices quoted are over a month old was the reason for my comments. It's like flying with an out of date chart!

As the flying season gets under way, the updates should become more regular. Maybe this thread will prompt a few.

I agree that the current fuel price spikes do not help.

For the more far-flung destinations without a resident forumite I find even the out of date fuel prices a useful guide to what to expect, although the postion in the table may be misleading.

Happy now?

[Bathman]

Avgas up again today

21 pence rise in two weeks. Killing me - and I have so little options.

Obtaining a licence must be gettting out of the range of more and more--at £160 an hour plus instructors fee-say £25, plus landing fee/circuits at many fields--though not all--you"re now looking at £200 an hour plus.
Fortunately i usually fly with one or two other group members--even flying the group plane solo is becoming very expensive. Wonder if these fuel prices will ever peak.?

my last lesson (6 circuits in a PA-38, at Carlisle) cost £248
