Re: Mo gas
Suppose you were an idiot. And suppose you wanted to put MoGas in an airplane. But then, I repeat myself.

Re: Mo gas
If I was only lucky enough to live near to an airport that sold ethanol free mogas, I would be happy to be the first in line to buy it.
On the way home from Duluth I stopped in an airport which had mogas for sale. When I asked the locals since there was no one from the FBO there, if it had ethanol, they looked at me shrugged their shoulders and smiled. I bought 100LL.
Wonder what your going to do George in a few years when MOGAS is the only fuel available. And it's likely to have ethanol to boot.

Re: Mo gas
At the rate the TFR's keep popping up, and the way 'Uncle Sam' keeps restricting GA, we may not have to worry about what kind of fuel we put in our obsolete planes...
Or maybe "We the People" should take our country back
Just my stir

I don't think that will work....I'm working on the Idea that we bought the Louisiana territory from France, when they needed money......At 1.5 million...... In today's money......Isn't that close to what we owe China?......Just something to think about......Brad

Loo-easy-anna's property values have depreciated considerably since we bought it from France as the result of Ol'Gar and Ron Massicot's residence in that state. I figger we are stuck with it.Brad Brady wrote:...I don't think that will work....I'm working on the Idea that we bought the Louisiana territory from France, when they needed money......At 1.5 million......
