Jay, mogas in this part of the world (the Middle East) means the stuff
I put into my C240. The fuel for aircraft is called A-1 hereabouts (I
know because I constructed an A-1 pipeline ).

What's the fuel for cars called in the US? This is all rather
addling...

Jay has a Supplemental Type Certificate for his aircraft that allows him to
use automotive fuel as long as it meets certain criteria. Mogas is
automotive fuel, Avgas is aviation fuel.
