There's a California fellow over on the Cherokee 235/236 user's
group who is using ethanol-laced mogas in his Cherokee 235,
exclusively, and without difficulty.

He admits that he *has* ruined his fiberglass tip tanks -- at
something like $3500 each -- but this has not deterred him from
simply shutting them off and using the aluminum main tanks.


He has ruined his tip tanks at a loss of $7000 but is using mogas
"without difficulty". Right. That guy is every bit as stupid and
confused as the moron who blundered into the D.C. ADIZ a few months
ago, and is as likely to give GA an equally bad name.
