HAVASU airport.
if you are towing from San Bernardino, Cable airport in Upland will sell it.

Yup, know of those, was hoping for a place on the way, understand there is a old crop duster airport out on Mohave rd, just north of needles, just never tried it, may be a bit of dirt rd.

Needles Airport sells fuel- 760-247-2371 - never bought it there but have been in a plane fueled there

Thanks

Needles Chevron just off the freeway across from Bonanza Cafe sells Av Gas at the pump for $5.90 a gallon. Sun Valley airport (Old Sea, Sail and Tail) off El Rodeo /95 hwy sells it at $4.30 a gallon

This airport is closed to fuel sales and yup the silt road sucked

Chevron needles or next to spirit mountain Casino

Station next to spirit mountain is racing fuel, not av gas. I would speculate it is very old racing fuel at that, they don't sell much

Gotcha. I try not to go there. They're not too friendly [emoji52]

Anyone with recent experience buying 100LL in the Needles area? The Chevron in Needles sells, but the price on the pump was $9.99/gal .

Do any of the local airports allow you in with a boat or gas cans?

The airport has it for 4.99/gal. I've yet to find any airport operator that refuses to sell gas, your money spends as well as anyone else.

See my above post, that’s where I buy my av gas. Last weekend it was 4.15 a gallon. Take hwy 95 to el rodeo and follow the signs to airport. It’s open to cars, boats and gas cans

Thanks. Looks like that sun valley airport is pretty close to the bridge at the AVI.

 

[Don Johnson]

Yes it is near the avi bridge

Needles Airport, fueled 3 times there when we camped at Pirates, cardlock and no waiting

 

[Jonas Grumby]

Wow, I started this tread 4 years ago, the new motor doesn’t even use avgas, unless I change pulleys

I just checked Foreflight to see what Needles fuel prices are and they show no fuel available there.
So don't go with confirming.

The fuel pumps at Sun Valley are easy and never a wait. Right turn on El Rodeo up to S Bison dr (2.4 miles from 95) make a right and 500’ up the road is the pumps.

Really nice!

I have a Gentry Deal I’m putting in a boat. Maybe I’ll see you at the fuel pump. My in-laws have a house in the airport.

You can get a prox card from Jim in the airport office next to the fuel tank to gain entrance to the fuel/airport 245/7/365. It is $25.
