Does anyone know of a source of avgas in Pewsey Vale - Clench Common I'll ring in the morning, Draycott is feasible (ish) Thruxton another possibility but Old Sarum a touche too far for the return leg.
2.5 hours endurance, 12 gph fuel burn, Bournemouth - Pewsey, 1 hour local round there then back to Bournemouth at 60 knots or so leaves it very tight - hence the request for information.

I used to fly from Draycott and it has AVGAS altho I believe it is £1.60+ /litre now! Worth giving them a call to check.

I'd try Thruxton; last I was in there they'd waive landing fees if you bought fuel.

Highly unlikely you'd get AVGAS at Manton or Clench Common - they're both pretty much MOGAS only communities.
