Having just watched the AOPA webinar on the implementation of making this
fuel available, the one area not addressed is whether amateur built
experimental aircraft would need to do any paperwork to use the fuel. Type
certificated aircraft will require an STC, just like they do for using
mogas. Seems to me that we could just change our fuel placards to read
G100UL or 100LL required, and start using it. Would be interesting to get
EAA's opinion on this from one of their legal and technical experts.
If we don't need anything, it would reduce GAMI's potential income a bit,
although they still will get licensing/patent fees anyway.
There is no question in my mind that any IO-540 that is currently installed
in a -10 and runs satisfactorily on 100LL will be fine on G100UL.
Especially since the stock engine was originally certified on 91/96 Avgas.

I've never heard of any rule preventing homebuilts from running any fuel
they want. No STC is required for a homebuilt. I've run 100LL, 93 E-free
mogas, and 93 E-gas in homebuilts, and I know of quite a few others who
run all variations too, down to 87 E-gas (in Mazda rotaries). I'm not
saying it's smart to run 87 in a 10-1 compression angle valve engine;
just that it isn't illegal.
It should be relatively easy to get EAA's opinion; just ask.

I agree with you, although I have heard of FBOs that won't pump into a
tank that doesn't have a placard allowing a specific grade of fuel..easy
to fix with label maker. I would especially look forward to less
maintenance in terms of fouled plugs, oil change intervals, etc.

Just read the article in AOPA magazine. It states that the stc funds the
development. About 1.50=24/hp i think. So a one time fee of 400-600=24 ge
ts u a sticker. Not sure how expermental fits in

Subject: | Strobe Power Supply Replacement |
I have a Strobes N More Pro 606 power supply driving my strobe lights and it has
been working great, but the power supply connector has become loose after 16
years and is intermittent. I'm not sure I can repair it so am looking for an
alternative and it appears the model I have is no longer produced. I saw another
by Preco that looks EXTREMELY similar to what I have, right down to the caution
verbiage. I was wondering if anyone has any experience with these or other
recommendations?
Thanks,
Marcus
