Keep in mind that they pay that kind of money for mogas, too.

Pardon?

In much of Europe, taxes are 50% for even middle incomes. And then there's
VATs...

That's what I said

What does this have to do with AVGAS?


Trends.

Parts of the country might not know that Mogas has dipped below $2.00 in
another part of the country.

Mogas and Avgas used to be closer in price - two years ago, the trend was
about 50 cents difference - OSH and MN as references. Recently, it seems
like that difference has been over $1.00 ....closer to $1.50 or $2.00 - post
Katrina.

You can thank big oil's zone pricing for this. There are BP stations 3
miles apart
with a 10 cent difference in price. You aviators are considered to be
"rich" and
can stand the price hike, according to ExxChvBPShell.
