New unleaded Fuel for Civil Air Patrol Aircraft in San Francisco Bay Area
California Wing to use new UL94 Unleaded Fuel in San Jose, CA
Location – Reid-Hillview Airport (KRHV), CA - Dec 15, 2021
On Nov 18, Civil Air Patrol (CAP) completed the paperwork required to use unleaded fuel in its Cessna 182T aircraft based at Reid-Hillview Airport of Santa Clara County (RHV - San Jose, CA). This is the first aircraft in CAP’s approximately 560-aircraft fleet to make the transition to unleaded aviation gasoline. The switch comes less than a month after Textron Aviation, which manufactures this model of aircraft, announced that this aircraft was approved to use unleaded fuel.
