I refuelled with a Cirrus on EHGG in March this year. Very nice and easy setup with a self service station, something I always prefer. The fuel price was fair(ish), what you can expect in Netherlands. I even got a picture of it. :)
This is from 17th of March:
Don’t forget to inform them of your arrival from non-schengen.
Thank you sir.
I just found the old invoice. Avgas in Leer EDWF has been 1,84€/litre last June.
Unfortunately, no customs and immigration at Leer.
Otherwise I would agree on Leer. Landing fee in EHGG, including approach fee, for an SR22 is 55 Euros… plus in Leer you would save about 80 Euros on fuel over Eelde.
if you don’t mind breaking into 3 legs, is Calais still cheap for AVGAS?
Load her to the gunnels at EGJB, top up and clear customs/immigration at LFAC and then stop as required for cheaper fuel enroute to Norway.
Oh, I thought customs and immigration would be possible o/r at every airfield, but I might be misinformed though, because I very seldom need either.
What about Billund instead of Eelde? Avgas prices in Denmark seem to be around 2 €/l. Avgas at Eelde is very expensive.
The following plan is generated by the autorouter:
EGJB N0173F120 KETIK DCT LUMOG DCT CAN R50 CMB N874 VEKIN N873 KEKIX/N0173F080 N873 TUSKA/N0173F070 DCT MIKRO/N0173F030 DCT GELBA GELBA10 EKBI
It requires 60 USG and 04:00 flight time. In a NA SR22 LOP you get 65% BHP sipping 13.5 gph at FL100
4 hrs is too long. I don’t do more than 3 hr legs, that’s the capacity of my head and my bladder. Might look at Guernsey-Calais-Billund-Eggemoen.
Problem is also that we are a bit strapped for time. Need to land before dark.
In that case saving 0,50 €/l may not be so important…
