I would tend to agree with this from a practical standpoint Lonnie but part of my "hobby" is playing with engines.. Sometimes I do have trouble balancing the "playing with engines" with the "getting out and flying". I need to retire so I can direct more at both.

That does make great sense Bert. I am planning a Fun Fly upcoming and if I bring all the planes I would want, I would be toting 4 different fuels... that's a Pain... My 10-1 gas setup is cute, simple and compact.
