  • Swift Fuels is actively marketing its 94UL unleaded aviation fuel, stating that the refining and distribution infrastructure is ready for nationwide deployment in the U.S.
  • The UL94 fuel is compatible with approximately 65% of the U.S. general aviation fleet.
  • Swift Fuels is also developing a replacement for 100LL fuel to cater to the remaining aircraft that require 100-octane fuel.

Swift Fuels says it’s pushing hard to market its 94UL unleaded aviation fuel to more airports and that the infrastructure is in place to refine and distribute it virtually anywhere in the U.S. At this week’s Sport Aviation Expo in Sebring, Swift’s Chris D’Acosta told AVweb that UL94 can be burned by about 65 percent of the U.S. general aviation fleet. The remaining aircraft require 100-octane fuel. In this AVweb podcast, D’Acosta gave us additional details about both UL94 and Swift’s efforts to field a replacement for 100LL.
