Default $98 per barrel oil

I usually pay $1 per gallon more for avgas than for hi-test.

$4/gallon for regular will probably mean $4.50 for hi-test and $5.50 for
avgas. Not a lot of difference, but still not $7

Well, boys and girls, here it comes. $4/gallon gas in America. This
will translate into $7/gallon avgas soon enough.

Our last fly-in guest at the hotel was almost two weeks ago... (And
we just had our 28th consecutive sell-out weekend, so business is
booming...)

I use car gas in my plane. I filled it two weeks ago for $2.89 per
gallon. I flew to LaCrosse, WI that same day and paid $5 per gallon
for avgas.

I don't think $7/gallon avgas will be much of a stretch.

Well we're already paying $1.64(NZ) a litre for super (road) so we
must be well over the $7 per gallon avgas

To be happy in your country you are friendly invited to check it out
here in Italy...1 liter per 2 euros, that means we are already over
7$/gallon...in some aerodromes the price is also higher, 2.2?/liter,
we're still crying...

No it isn't. I was there the other day and the most expensive I saw was
about Euro 1.35/litre. Brits seem to have it the worst in Europe, but then
again it gives them somethig to blame their "guv'mint" for so it's
actually keeping them happy in the end.

We're currently paying about £0.94 a litre I think. According to XE.com
that's $1.98 or Euro 1.34

As you say, something like 75% of that goes straight to HMG in tax.

And I resemble the implication that we like to complain

No, I didn't say that,. I said it gives you guys yet another excuse to
whine about how your govmint is abusing you.

I know. I particularly love your national anthem.

Having aid that, credit where it's due. I didn't hear one single whine
about the Rugby!

I was absolutely flabbergasted I have to tell you.
