Includes The New 'FOREVER' Avgas STC
Swift Fuels has slashed the price of its UL94 Avgas Supplemental Type Certificate (STC) by more than 75% – to $100 for each piston aircraft.
Swift Fuels is also rolling-out its new “FOREVER” Avgas STC certificate to all Avgas STC purchasers which entitles the holder to receive all future Avgas STC’s issued by the FAA to Swift Fuels for specific aircraft and piston engines at no extra charge. Forever. So, buyers get the UL94 Unleaded Avgas STC and the Forever Avgas STC certificate - together for $100.
Swift Fuels is offering the FOREVER Avgas STC certificate to every pilot and aircraft owner in the US and Canadian piston fleet, including all high compression / 100-octane demanding aircraft – for only $100. International sales of FOREVER Avgas STC certificates are set to begin in approximately 90 days. Swift Fuels’ goal is to fully replace 100LL (leaded) avgas with a 100-octane unleaded avgas alternative. Their proprietary engine and flight-testing programs are ongoing, working to achieve FAA-certification on their premium 100-octane unleaded fuel in close collaboration with the FAA and various OEM’s.
In the months ahead, Swift Fuels will require every aircraft in the US and Canadian fleet to purchase an STC in order to fly its 100-octane unleaded avgas. BUT, if you buy a FOREVER Avgas STC now, you will already own the certificate entitling you to all future Avgas STC’s from Swift Fuels for your aircraft. All purchasers of a FOREVER Avgas STC from Swift Fuels will receive a private registration certificate. They can then register their aircraft online and Swift Fuels will forward all the STC documentation materials once they are approved from the FAA. It’s all available now for only $100... and its valid FOREVER!
"The price of the FOREVER Avgas STC is at its lowest point now – but pricing is expected to rise an additional $50 each year going forward," said Chris D’Acosta, CEO for Swift Fuels. "So, we encourage our supporters to lock-in all future Avgas STC’s from Swift Fuels at the current low price. The FOREVER Avgas STC program will allow Swift Fuels to ‘illuminate the pathway to Fleetwide Approval’ for pilots as we rollout our 100-octane unleaded avgas to replace 100LL.
“While there is no assurance that the FAA will grant such a certification to every aircraft, Swift Fuels is actively pursuing their FAA certification program for engines and airframes across the North American fleet – with expectations of replacing 100LL on a global scale within 3-5 years,” D'Acosta said.
