money and you get to make engine noises like you did when you were a kid. People with wishes and no gas manage to fly all the time. People with gas but no wishes should probably fly away. Jose -- Get high on gasoline: fly an airplane. for Email, make the obvious change in the address. |

The cost of gasoline affects any number of things. It does not mean that the cost of gasoline is relevant in any number of newsgroups, especially when the topic isn't even directly related to *aviation* gas. That said, I did find your post quite funny...good job! ![]() It's still all off-topic. Pete |

Just to keep things pure, next time I'll make the subject "AVgas Prices --
Help at Last?" so they will refine 100LL at the new site? At this stage of the discussion, there's no way to know. It's doubtful, at best, however, given the fact that 100LL is about to be regulated out of existence in America. -- Jay Honeck Iowa City, IA Pathfinder N56993 www.AlexisParkInn.com "Your Aviation Destination" |

The EPA's position is and has been that leaded aviation fuel doesn't constitute enough of a hazard for them to target it, and the fuel experts at the Oshkosh symposiums said that legislation isn't a problem. They said that what will kill 100LL is the fact that the market is declining and the manufacturer of lead-tetraethyl will almost certainly find it unprofitable to make it within the next 8 years.

Quite right - as any good airman knows, aircraft are powered by wishing really really hard, not gasoline! No, you missed that one in ground school. Aircraft are powered by money. Cost of operation is based on the square of the speed, distance/range, and capacity of the aircraft and proportional to the square of the time spent in storage. IE, it's going to cost a bunch based on the capability of the aircraft whether you fly it or not. Aircraft have emotions and will get even if you let them just set in a hangar some where.
