2011年12月14日 · I burn 10 year old car gas in plastic barrels every time I’m at my cabin. As I walk my neighborhood most of us have 500 gallon fuel tanks for avgas and with the price of fuel most of us don’t fly as much as we used to.

2021年4月21日 · Most small airports don't have two fuel farms for avgas anymore. In the old days, you could get 80 or 100 octane avgas at many airfields, but when 100LL became available, most airports dumped the lower octane fuels like a hot rock.
