![]() "Peter Dohm" wrote in message ... wrote in message ps.com... The best way to remove ethanol from gas is for us to affect legislation that would otherwise mandate ethanol in all gasoline, even that used for off-road use. Most congress people are completely unaware that auto fuel is used successfully by a large number of aircraft owners and that ethanol poses a significant safety risk. There are some very powerful lobbying forces behind the new mandates. It's important that we be heard, i.e., we participate. Boaters are also affected by ethanol mandates so it may be helpful to join forces with that community. -----snipped------ You've summed it up rather well. The problem appears to be entirely one of mandates, and the solution is to remove the mandates. I'd bet that 99.9% of Congress even knows it is an issue. The AOPA and EAA better get a letter writing campaign going. It is a lot easier to stop mandates before they are in place than it is to get one removed. |
