But is there any real future in mogas for aircraft. Its getting pretty
hard to find FAA legal mogas. Out here in California almost all mogas
is prohibited by the STC's.

I spent some time with a friend that is fairly high up the corporate latter
of one of the top 15 oil companies this weekend and we were discussing just
this. He said in the states that do not require marking of gas with or
without ethanol, Arkansas being one of them. That the chance of you buying
gas without ethanol over the long run is pretty much zero. Even in those
states that do have marking requirements the chances of getting a batch that
has it even in an unmarked pump are going to be pretty good.
