If it goes down 20 cents at Gainesville and you get an AOPA discount, it
will be under $3 at Gainesville! )

Iowa's state and federal combined gasoline tax is 39.5 cents, Wisconsin's
is 49.5 cents... a dime different, but with the higher basis and
transportation in Wisconsin, I doubt if we'll see $2.75 here. Maybe on
the eastern side of the state, but most of the center and north western
part of Wis is fed by the Koch pipeline and fuel coming out of that
pipeline is consistently ten cents per gallon higher. Drive 20 miles east
of here and you can see the immediate change in prices.



Wisconsin's gas-tax is the highest in the country.

Wisconsin's aviation fuel tax is 6 cents per gallon.
Want to save even more $ by burning mogas you say?.....
Can you hold 100 gallons? Got a buddy you can split 100 gallons with?

Many small aircraft have been approved by the FAA to use
the same unleaded gasoline that is placed in the family car.

Under Wisconsin law, general aviation fuel dealers can

purchase automobile gasoline from fuel suppliers for aircraft

use without paying the Wisconsin motor vehicle fuel tax

(currently 30.9¢ per gallon). Fuel users (see Part II) can also

purchase automobile gasoline tax-exempt for aircraft use by

obtaining an aviation fuel license.

In order to purchase automobile gasoline tax-exempt from

fuel suppliers, general aviation licensees must give suppliers

a Certificate of Fuel Tax Exemption (MF-209). Blank forms

can be obtained by calling the department at (608) 266-3223.

In addition, gasoline purchased tax-exempt for aircraft use

must be delivered to the general aviation licensee’s storage

tank in an amount not less than 100 gallons.

Yep, lucky them... outside of Koch's grasp. Koch country is running $2.95.
Everything up around Green Bay is in the $2.75 range also... cheaper retail
than I could buy wholesale! unreal... I bet their pump price goes up in the
next few days. When I bought the terminal was "on allocation" limiting
branded fuel purchases, which then puts pressure on the generic prices that
I pay.

$1 for 1,000 gallons of desalinated water, for purposes other than
drinking (authorities here often claim that this water is potable too).
$1 fetches about 2.7 gallons of mineral water.

Over here they charge a dollar a liter for bottled water.
City water is sold by the thousand cubic feet (7,500
gallons) and includes a sewage treatment fee too. Don't
know the exact price. There must be a subsidy on your water
production.

If you can stand reading "government" pages
http://www.wichitagov.org/CityCode/D....htm?code=2799
list the schedule of water charges and you might need a
lawyer, CPA and a sense of humor to read it.
Wichita is in a desert with the nearest water a 1,000 feet
down, except for a few lakes and rivers, which often go dry
in the summer. At least Dubai has the ocean nearby.
