Default Removing Ethanol from Gas?

Everyone might drop in on Baylor U's flight research programs. The've
been flying numerous aircraft on everything from straight avgas to 100%
grain alcohol. They even have STC's for the O-235 and IO-540 series
engines to run on any percentage of ethanol.


Absolutely. There were several planes on display at OSH this year that
are STC'd to use alcohol.

It's apparently not that big a deal to make planes work with the stuff
-- but that's not the subject here. I want to know -- is it possible
to REMOVE the stuff, so that our current STCs could be used?
