AvGas Availability?

Lots of gas here in Montana. I have a buddy that buys gas by the tanker
load, 8000 gallons at a time. The wholesale price today is $3.20.

That's less than the local Hess station wants for mogas in NJ.

Give a person a fish and you feed him for a day; teach a person to
use the Internet and he won't bother you for weeks.

And in Cowley, WY(U68); 100LL is going for $2.75. Stopped there today
and topped off as it's only 50 miles from Billings. I'll probably
offload most of that into my 100 gallon tank in the hangar and get some
more in the next few days. He has about 3-4000 gallons left at that
price. They raise or lower prices only with each tanker load.

Elisabeth filled up on the Garden State Parkway yesterday. While I was seeing
$3.19 on Thursday and $3.24 on Friday, she paid $2.65. Normally the Parkway's
prices are higher than elsewhere, but the State mandated that the stations that
are licensed to sell on the GSP are only allowed to change their prices once a
week. I expect they're considerably higher now.

I was surprised to see one station selling regular for $2.85 on Thursday. It
seems that the manager follows the same policy as your FBOs.

Today I waited in line 25 minutes in Daphne, AL and paid $2.59/gal.

Yesterday, lines were 2-4 hours long all over the Mobile Bay area.

This time last year, I'd be fuming to have to pay more than 2
bucks/gal. Today, I'm welcomng anything below $3.50/gal. How
perceptions can change so quick.
