Default Re: Oil @ a 7 yr low per barrel

We have a local airport that sells the 100 avgas. You just carry your can(s) to the pump, put in your credit card and fill away. No one mans the pump. Since it is on the edge of the runway, you can't drive your car or truck up to it but have to park a few yards away on the driveway.

The only problem I ever had, was being there at the wrong time a few months back. A student pilot was taxiing a little bi-plane to the parking area and cut the corner too sharp. His wing tip hit the main rotor stand on a Raven helicopter parked in the lot. No injuries other than BIG wallet damage. Luckily there were dozens of other witnesses so I didn't have to stick around.
