You're ignoring the many STC's which allow GA aircraft to run on mogas, not
to mention the Rotax and Jabiru engines which power many of the new light
sport aircraft, and typically run better on mogas than on 100LL.

Your statement that "Diesels are the future" is just as true today as it was
in 1983, when I was given a diesel-powered company car. Diesel was "the
future" then, just as it is today, and just as it probably will still be 20
years from now.

You're one of very few, then. The diesels cost significantly more money
to
buy and the fuel isn't that much cheaper than gasoline.


100LL is more $$ than Jet-A by an amount that is not insignificant. 50%?
Couple that with performance (fuel burn) numbers and the choice is
obvious -
a double savings.

Also, Jet-A will continue to be available. Will 100LL? Sure, for a price -
small market, and shrinking!

Diesels are the future (more shrinking 100LL market). Start building them
and the prices *should* fall.
