Thanks for the invite - already planning it ;). plus or minus weather, I'll see
if I can make it out. I'd airport-hop probably which would slow it down but it'd
be a neat trip....

Arty, and Fellow Kolbers -
I've already stopped whining. Here's why:
Just this week, I received the following information from the chief
Rotax mechanic at Lockwood Aviation: Rotax (the company) has concluded
that E-10 gas has no ill effects on the 912-series engines. This
finding comes after several years of collecting and analyzing field data
on the 912 fleet. As long as your fuel tanks and fuel lines are
compatible with E-10, the engine itself will do fine. He told me that
they (Rotax) even did tests with up to 25 percent ethanol, with no
problems to the 912.
Rotax currently specifies in their manuals that 5 percent is the max
allowable ethanol content in gas for the 912. They will imminently be
releasing an updated Service Bulletin announcing that 10 percent is
okay. I'll be watching for it.
I did not ask about E-10 in the two-stroke engines.
Arty - I'm not trying to dampen Dean Billings' efforts or your
enthusiasm to help the cause, but this new information seems relevant to
this topic thread.

Dennis:
I have successfully been flying with 10 per cent alcohol since it
started being added to gas at the local country store. Have had no
problem, as far as I know. We have flown it at MV, 5200 MSL, Rock
House, OR, 4,000 MSL, Gantt IAP, 450 MSL, and can not detect any
difference in performance between the 10 %, straight gas, or 100LL.

This is GREAT news for your four-stroke engines - how do we find out about the
effect of E10 on two-cycles?
