We proudly offer a wide selection of pre-owned commercial aircraft engines.

 We offer the following aviation fuels:

Jet A1     JP-54     D6     EN-590


Which fuel is used in airplanes?
In general aviation, there are two main aircraft fuel types, which are AVGAS and Jet Fuel.
Choosing the right aviation fuel for your aircraft depends mainly on its engine type.
AVGAS, or aviation gasoline, is used for piston-engine aircraft.
Jet Fuel is used for aircraft with turbine-engine jets. 

What Are the Main Types of Aviation Fuel?
There are various types of airplane fuel available worldwide. However, commercial airplanes, private jets, and general aviation aircraft widely use two main types of airplane fuel: Jet Fuel and AVGAS.
As previously mentioned, the main determiner of which aviation fuel type to choose is your aircraft engine type!

What Are the Differences Between Jet A and Jet A1?
Despite some differences in the manufacturing specifications between the two Jet Fuel types, both can be used interchangeably to operate turbine-engines airplanes.

The main differences between Jet A and Jet A1 are:
•    Freezing points. Jet A freezing point is -40°C, while Jet A1 freezes at -47° The lower freezing point of Jet A1 makes it more suitable for international long-haul flights, especially the ones overflying polar routes.
•    Additives: Jet A does not regularly include static dissipater additives. These additives help to decrease the static charges which could form due to the movement of Jet Fuel.
Jet A1 mostly contains static dissipater additives.
•    Jet A is mainly used in the U.S, while Jet A1 is more common in the rest of the world.

Jet Fuel
Jet fuel is a colorless, refined kerosene-based type of fuel. It is used for airplanes with turbine engines, like jet engines and turboprops.
Jet Fuel is available in two types, Jet A and Jet A1.

AVGAS
Aviation gasoline, or AVGAS, is the type of aviation fuel that powers small piston-engine airplanes.
These airplanes are usually operated by flying clubs, flight training jets, and private pilots.
AVGAS also includes two main types, which are AVGAS 100 and AVGAS 100LL.
The 100 in both types refers to the octane rating.
 
What Are the Differences Between AVGAS 100 and AVGAS 100LL?
•    The key difference between both types is the percentage of the included tetraethyl lead additive. AVGAS 100 has high lead content, while AVGAS 100LL (low lead) includes low amounts of tetraethyl lead, as the name refers.
•    AVGAS 100 is dyed green, whereas AVGAS 100LL is dyed blue.
