Swift Fuels has opened a new processing facility in Lafayette, Indiana, to produce 100SF, an unleaded high-octane aviation gasoline.
100SF is designed as a safe, drop-in replacement for leaded 100LL avgas for all general aviation piston engine aircraft worldwide.
The company is investing $2.5 million in the facility, which will process over 10,000 gallons of 100SF per month, addressing the lack of an unleaded high-octane fuel as the FAA plans to phase out leaded avgas.
More than 100 people recently turned out for the opening of a fuel processing facility in Lafayette, Indiana, built to produce a new unleaded high-octane aviation gasoline called 100SF.
Designed as a drop-in replacement for 100LL, the fuel can be safely used in GA piston airplanes, said officials from Swift Fuels LLC, based in the Purdue Research Park in West Lafayette.
