Which statement describes the appearance of AVGAS labeling?

• A. Blue letters on a white background.
• B. Red letters on a white background.
• C. White letters on a red background.
• D. White letters on a black background.

Answer: (C)

Labeling aviation fuels uses color and high contrast so crew can identify the fuel type at a glance and avoid misfueling. For AVGAS, the standard appearance is white letters on a red background. This combination provides strong contrast, making the word easy to read from a distance or in varying lighting conditions, which helps ensure the right fuel is selected. It stands out in the fueling area where other colors and materials are present. Other color schemes are used for different fuels, but white on red is the recognized appearance for AVGAS.
