Unleaded fuel on tap at airfields seems hard to locate in Europe generally -of course it may be because I'm not looking properly or it is not very well advertised.
I realise the odd tank of 100LL won't be a disaster but I'd rather avoid putting it in my 912 if I can.
Since Europa pilots are some of the most experienced travellers with rotax engines can I tap into the collective knowledge to see if anyone has any tips on obtaining Mogas, 94UL or 91/96UL -particularly in France?
Thanks,
Bill

Hi Bill,
In Germany you can find many airfields that have "Super Plus" to EN 228 - 98 Octane. I do not think, but am not sure, if we have "UL" grades.

Just a thought but could these links be added to the Europa Club Website please?

Nice map Roland.
You can see that we have very few UL91 stations and we mostly fly on normal car petrol.
Personally, if minus temps. or over 30deg C are possible I use Avgas.

Hello Barry,
my Rotax 914 is perfectly happy with 95 Octane Premium from the car station also >30°C OAT and up to FL200. Must depend on the Rotax model . I well remember your story from Wershofen, when you had to change your pants after landing due to vapour-lock. Generally the Rotax doesn't like 100LL at all and I avoid it whenever possible.
Incidentally - will you visit or exhibit at the AERO? I guess I'll be there on thursday.
Regards
Roland

Thanks to all for some very helpful information.
After seeing the Total maps I did try to sign up for a Total card and received this, plus 6 attachments of forms and 'guidance'. Apart from wanting to sell me 100LL, it would seem from this they are not that keen on new customers, Oh well!

The total card makes such a difference. Refuel at any time (Self service) including lunch times!
It makes traveling in France quick and easy. Once you have the Total card it's easy no extra forms every year.
I know French bureaucracy is a little frustrating.
I use AVGas when over there, I know it decreases time to overhaul but the 912S runs fine I thing mine runs a little better if anything.
