FUEL, AIRCRAFT, AVGAS 100 LL

Definition

Fuel intended for small propeller-driven aircraft with piston engines. Avgas is a contraction of AViation GASoline.

Specifications

  • Very volatile
  • Very fluid
  • Blue colour
  • Very explosive and inflammable

Instructions for use

Avgas cannot be used in cars as a substitute for petrol, even with the addition of oil.

For safety reasons, fuel should not be stored in the proximity of residential buildings, particularly during conflicts. It must be stored in a shaded, well-ventilated place, free of flammable materials or heat sources (such as a generator). Make sure there is a fire extinguisher or a bucket of sand placed nearby.

Choose a colour for each type of fuel and use it to mark all related articles, such as jerrycans, drums, pumps, etc.

Caution

In some cases the same name refers to different fuels in different languages, which can lead to confusion.

For example, in French, petrol is called "essence" and kerosene (lamp oil) is called "pétrole (lampant)".

(See MSF guidelines and preliminary remarks on petroleum hydrocarbons.)

Precautions for Use

Very explosive and inflammable
