So what happens when 100LL is gone anyway?
ISTR there's only one company that still makes TEL (I think it's in the
UK?) When they decide the cost isn't worth it, what then? Sure, the lower HP Lyc's and Cont's can probably run mogas without issue, but the higher HP turbo'd engines won't be so happy without lead. The FADEC mod being developed by Aerosance might be a solution for some engines by computerized ignition retarding, but that's not a cheap fix. Anyone read anything more about the coming end of avgas?
