Hi michaelnel I also love the smell of glow fuel and I admit I transport with both a covered pickup and or my trailer so I do not know how to offer solutions if you transport in a SUV (sorry I guess that is what an Xterra is).

However I just wanted you to know depending upon your local fixed based operator or who ever operates the fuel consesion at your local airport may refuse to sell you 100LL or Jet A into a can. This is quite worse since 9/11 and the ability to buy it in small quantities can range from refusal to open purchase. So best to inquire at your local FBO first with out a can and explain why you want to purchase it.

Most recently here, while we have been able to buy 100LL but unfortunately the same operators will not sell us Jet A for certain of our turbines into small containers.

On the original question of this thread my somewhat enlarged Senior Cadet float plane has proven ideal with the spark ignition version of the OS 15 cc gas engine.
