Just got an e-mail from the LHS . for this years fuel buy. Omega 15% is $16.99 gallon , case price.
I do not care for 2 strokes , no matter if it' a weed whacker or what ever,{ Well O.K , I like my 64 Vespa} , but I like flying the bigger planes and when you get up in the bigger glows , it's like flushing a toilet.
I have been looking at the new gas Saito's , The 1.20 size is spendy but if you fly alot it would pay for it's self pretty quick. or thats the line I'm using on the wife. I'll hit her with a bill for the 6 cases of glow fuel first, just to soften her up lol.
You don't like Gassers??? All but one of my glows is a four stroke but I tend to go gas as soon as I need anything bigger then a 1.20. With the fuel cost and the cost of the engines, going gas is just one of the things i do. After I found out about not being able to get Power Master fuel any longer I went out and started converting one of my planes over to a 1.40 gasser. I figure the rest of the fuel companies will be raising there prices? One of my LHS sells the Omega 15% for $14.00 a gallon, let's see how long that lasts now!!
