AirNav shows the price there as $3.12 for 100LL. The small field I'm based
at
(Lakewood, NJ) is charging $3.05, Old Bridge is $2.95, and Allaire is
$3.12. And
the Brits will probably chime in now with figures that I don't even want
to
think about.

Sorry George, think about this. £1.24 per litre. With £1 = $1.94 at the
moment makes it $2.40 a litre. There is just about 4 litres to the US
gallon but will not calculate it out fully as this is not the time of year
to see grown men cry.

With Jet fuel at £0.38 a litre, you can see why here in Europe, diesel
engines seem a absolutely necessary development.
