Hi, we have facilites for storing samples of fuel for a period as per CAA/ICAO regulations.recommendations/SOPs/etc.
Another company stored Avgas samples which got hit by the sunlight and have developed a milky opaque colour, instead of the usual crystal clear blue. So - to experiment he put a sample of their fuel into our cupboard and let one of his samples stay in the sporadic sunlight.
We shall see, in a weeks time what the result could be.
Anyone have any knowledge of discolouration of AvGas?
Personally, I think their fuel must have had porridge in it, judging by the colour!
