Barber Airport phased it out late last Spring - Forrest said it was going to cost too much to keep it around. All he sells now is 100LL. I think what's going on is that distributors don't want to deal with it any more, so they charge airports a ton to get it. Sort of like trying to find loose nuts & bolts at the hardware store - all they want to deal in is blister packs. Sorry, Kip Gardner (Still looking for feedback on an OH Corvair College for this summer!) North Canton, OH ________________________________ Message 3 _____________________________________ Time: 07:18:16 PM PST US From: "Ted Brousseau" Subject: Pietenpol-List: Sport Pilot --> Pietenpol-List message posted by: "Ted Brousseau" I was thinking of writing a letter in support of the sport pilot catagory. One angle would be to talk about violations for flying without a medical. Does anyone know how many violations there are each year? I would suspect there has been a major spike with the baby boomers coming along. Also, does anyone know what the FAA is doing to pilots caught flying without a medical? Or what the maximum penalty is? I am fine. Just looking for an angle.

Especially easy when done on line with a search. Also, www.airnav.com lets you put in the type of fuel you want. My experience is that they are far and few between. Probably better luck with auto fuel.
