He might not have enough cash to replace it, gallon-for-gallon
(unless
he's
really loaded which is unlikely) if the price spikes continue.

He may also run into another problem, though my crystal ball says he
won't. If you buy a tank of gas at a peak price and index your price

to
the price you paid, you may be stuck with that tank if the price then
drops. This happened at Lakewood airport two years ago.



At WVI 100LL is now $4.31/US gal. Might take couple of years to empty the
FBO tank at that rate .


I'll bet he's got a lot of margin in that price.
