Nothing more than anecdotal. The person who told me about the airport
being dry said that there are only two refineries in the USA that still
make avgas. I haven't tried to confirm that, but given the low volume I
would not find this surprising.


This excellent video should explain quite clearly (even to the pinheads)
why our energy consumption (to include gasoline) is way up and why
we are experiencing tight supplies and higher costs.

If you have an ounce of intellectual honesty in you will see
that government... ands its failure to make good and proper
decisions is at fault. Leadership and rational pragmatism is
ultimately needed but government has none of it.
