The AOPA website reports the last known refiner of 80 octane avgas has
stopped producing aviation gasoline. All I can say is: Thank God for the auto-gas STC. My plane runs like crap on 100 LL. -- Jay Honeck Iowa City, IA Pathfinder N56993 www.AlexisParkInn.com "Your Aviation Destination" |

Mine does too, but thanks to Gray Davis (and his successor Zee Governator who won't rescind the ****ing law) all California mogas has ethanol in it. Don't blame the Governator. It is a Federal requirement that ethanol is in our gasoline, thanks to Shrub's desperate attempt to placate midwest corn states and retain their vote. |

That explains why the smallest size popcorn you could buy at the movies was the volume of an oil drum. Damn you midwest corn states, damn you to hell and rice cakes! Like most truly awesome pork projects, ethanol is one of those things you'll find the D and the R in perfect agreement on over a long span of time. You might as well blame Bush for the Mode C requirement, he had about as much to do with that. -cwk. |
