avgas in Sao Tome or Principe?

[Sam Rutherford]

Hi, does anyone have any fuel contacts in these locations?

Thanks, Sam.

Try MultiServe Aviation Johannesburg, South Africa

[Sam Rutherford]

Hi, thanks for that but he can't help - good contact though.

Anyone else any ideas?!

Cheers, Sam.

I am flying into STP once a month. No avgas here mate. Try Libraville. (FOOL):)

[Sam Rutherford]

Hi rspheiff,

Any chance you have (or could get) the company's details that does the refuelling (or companies if more than one) there? I'll try to contact them directly so that they bring some drums in for me.

This is Africa, Everything is possible!

Thanks a million!

Sam.
