Airnav had FTG at $2.99 so I called to verify supply. Turns out that

plane flew nicer, the air was smoother and all was right in my world.

Apparently it's down to $3.55 for club members at HAFB. That's even
better than the $3.85 we were paying before the latest blow up of
prices.

btw - the only thing the fuel prices did was to incentize me not to
run at 75% power. After upgrading my 140 to 160hp, I was playing
with the "speed increase" but have gotten over that now.


At Spruce Creek (7FL6) it is $3.30; at Ormond Beach (OMN) it is $2,86; I
have reverted to my mogas STC, so I am paying $2.20.
