Where does that leave planes that use Mogas?


Paying taxes for roads that they won't be operating their aircraft on?


In some states you can at least get back the state portion of the road
tax for aviation and boating and most other "off road" uses. The federal
portion goes right into the federal coffers.

I know in Michigan and Texas you can get it back for sure (20 cents per
gallon in Texas). it's fill out a simple form with how many gallons your
bought for the plane & send it in no later than 1year after purchased,
then keep on file reciepts showing the fuel purchased.

California keeps it for aviation and boating, but allows a refund for
many other uses.
