Tassie Avgas

[Andy_G]

Hello all,
I'm after any info regarding fuel availability across the northern sectors of the Tassie. Myself and one other are planning a trip in a lighty across the strait from Melbourne and have noticed that the Avgas bowsers at airfields such as Devonport and Wynyard are BP carnet, rather than visa card swipe.
We just need the one refuel stop in that general area, as we are doing a clockwise loop with an overnighter thereabouts. Appreciate any local knowledge, Cheers.

Slightly off topic.

Is there an Avgas or Jet A1 distributor in Tasmania, or do airport operators just ship it down themselves?

Cambridge ... we take credit cards

Fuel I believe is brought in by one supplier then distributed around the state

Would you know who the distributor is?

Peter, I think BP distribute in Tasmania.

Andy, if you can't make it to Cambridge or need fuel on the North Coast, Wynyard has no call out fee and the bloke lives very close to airport and is friendly. Talk to him, number in ERSA. They take CC or cash.

AvTas Fuels look after:
Launny - Jet-A1 and Avgas (tanker only but theres also a BP carnet at Launny),
Devonport - Jet-A1 (Also a BP Carnet)
Wynyard - Definitely Jet A-1 but unsure of Avgas.
