I dont use it personally, but one of my LHS's carries it, and several of the guys I fly with use it, and they seem to like it just fine. I havent witnessed any problems with it, and I dont think that the owner of the shop I am speaking of would carry it if it wasnt up to quality.

My OS engines (both 2 and 4 strokes) have run all of their lives on Byrons 15% with absolutely no problems at all. The 4 strokes have well over 300 flights each (2 of them)

I use to only use Byron 10% but can't really get it here anymore in the Chicagoland area so I switched to Wildcat Premium Extra 10%. I liked the Byrons, was very high quality. I think they have a high level of quality. Course I like to add extra castor and few drops of Armour All, but thats just something left over from my controline days. It's good fuel. Good flying to you.
