Key Takeaways:

  • General Aviation Modifications Inc. (GAMI) announced that 1 million gallons of its G100UL 100-octane unleaded aviation fuel have been produced by Vitol and are now commercially available.
  • The fuel, stored at Vitol’s Baton Rouge plant, received a certificate of authenticity (COA), officially deeming it "commercially available."
  • This announcement aims to counter critics who questioned the fuel's commercial availability and is significant because it could trigger a California consent decree mandating a switch to unleaded fuel once an alternative to 100LL is commercially available.
