"mindenpilot" wrote in message ... What really gets me is the $3.73/gal. How can it be $1.00/gal more for fuel at an FBO that undoubtedly has higher volume than where I get it 30 miles away? That is the part that is robbery. 100LL is now $4.40-something where I tie down at BED just outside Boston. Fuel on Martha's Vineyard, which happens to be an island ten miles offshore where fuel must be tankered in via ferry, is nearly a dollar cheaper. The reason? BED is run by Massport and they have added a little vigorish to the fuel bill since BED and BOS are the only easy ways into Boston by air. The Vineyard (and ACK too) do not mark fuel up because their economies depend on tourism and GA is a major artery for that. All I'm saying is it may not be the FBO's fault. -cwk.

places) Ocala, Florida (Aug 03) . . . $4.23/gal www.Rosspilot.com
