Default Avgas plummets!

They also have national health care. If I didn't have to pay through the
nose for private health insurance, I could afford to fly a lot more, even at
higher fuel prices.

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


Yes, but they pay less income tax and get a month off every year. I
think that works out well for people that fly/drive less. It is sort
of a 'pay per use' system. I guess it all works out in the end.
