Default How About Story Time

Nick,

We had an auto gas STC for our 235 hp Pawnee.Â* Under then current
Colorado law, any fuel not used for the highways got a tax refund so car
gas was really cheap compared to avgas.Â* I never noticed any difference
in performance, either.

And, to add to my previous post about Creede:Â* There was a very nice
lady there who owned a bed and breakfast situated at 10,000' MSL in the
mountains to the north of the airport.Â* She let me stay the three-day
weekend in exchange for a free glider ride.
