See, I'm coming from a different land here too. I can't get my own car
onto the field to load babies into the airplane, much less a truck full
of gas.

That is incredibly stupid. Where do you fly from?

Heck, even at the larger airports in this area (Kansas City downtown,
Cedar Rapids, Madison, etc.) you can drive a courtesy car out to your
plane.

It's good to live where common sense still rules, I guess.

So, I think its great that you can make the grape work for you. There
are a lot of us out there that for a multitude of reasons doing so is
either impractical (airport access, not enough fuel taken on at home vs
total fuel used, permits), or impossible (engines 250 HP).

Until ethanol is everywhere (which, I fear, our new Congress will soon
be mandating), I will continue to enjoy the use of mogas in our plane.
Quite frankly (until it is impossible to use) I wouldn't consider
buying a plane that couldn't burn mogas, given the cost differential
with avgas.
