The occurrence
On 14 October 2023, a Piper PA-31-350 aircraft, operated by SkyCare Air Ambulance, was conducting a flight from Pickle Lake Airport, Ontario, to Winnipeg/St. Andrews Airport, Manitoba.
Before the flight, the aircraft was fuelled by a local fuelling company at the Pickle Lake Airport. After the aircraft departed, the fueller realized that the aircraft was given the wrong type of fuel. The fuelling company relayed a message to the flight crew to advise them.
