  1. I just got the data from the county. KWVI sells, on average, 11,600 gallons of 100LL per month
  2. Swift discusses the UND issue
  3. how many planes as UL94 totaled?
  4. I appreciate that. I don't mind knowing there are issues with certain engines, I do mind when GAMI comes out saying it is drop in and then 25+ planes got bricked and one was totaled $600K 421C. They now have changed their narrative: as there is no perfect fuel, they have added a disclaimer on wet tanks when you buy the STC and changed the FAQ. in November when I (and many others) got the STC it was drop in, don't need to change a thing. and that's a fact.
  5. unfortunately you do not know what needs to be done to your plane to be fully compatible with G100UL. Braly won'd disclose the log books from his Cirrus. Every plane that uses G100UL is a guinea plug. It's not just lines and paint.
  6. it's progress from a company that actual makes fuel for living. I think we have supplies of paint stripper for the next decade. Hopefully GAMI cuts a deal with Home Depot so it's more readily accessible.
  7. https://www.aopa.org/news-and-media/all-news/2025/september/04/swift-earns-astm-approval-of-100-octane-unleaded
  8. yeah. I will put the ask in now.
  9. this is august by event again KWVI only
  10. that's what I meant...so yes we are in agreement
  11. I always pitch up, gear up, flaps up that's what the POH says
  12. the latest GAMI FAQ: https://www.g100ul.com/news/g100ul-unleaded-avgas-the-facts/ GAMI is really desperate note: 4. Does not require any physical changes or modifications to any aircraft. "Given the current regulatory approval for a high octane unleaded avgas for use in nearly all piston engine aircraft - - One is compelled to ask the following question: “Is it, now, any longer morally or ethically acceptable, for any airport governing body to allow aircraft to continue to pollute the air around the airports with lead and thereby increase the blood lead levels of the neighborhood children?"
  13. GAMI has 3 problems: - a fuel that left a bad taste (no pun intended) - 1M gallons of it now over 1 year old. - VP chasing them https://vpracingfuels.com/blogs/press-releases/vp-navigates-faa-approval-for-unleaded-fuels
  14. is anyone here aware of Scott Perdue's lack of follow up on his recent videos re G100UL as well as the issue he had on his plane? we have been trying chasing him on beechtalk but he went silent tho he admitted the fuel had compatibility issues. Note he is a very pro GAMI and I'd like to think he can properly maintain his plane.
  15. I spoke to Mike a while ago when we ran my engine through his software while I was using G100UL. He helped GAMI test the fuel so he needs to be careful on what he discloses....his words. I personally don't have a problem with Mike he has provided great service to me sometimes for free.
  16. the name of the owner and operator as well as tail number are spoken in the video I have uploaded I am sure you can figure out a way to reach out to him and ask him all sorts of questions.
  17. as per Steve on his 3m, the insurance will be suing GAMI and the county/municipality.
  18. I read it as nobody wants the responsibility to deal with any of these...so 600K is better than the alternative.
  19. the regs don't matter anymore...GAMI has not proven to the eye of the consumer this fuel is drop in, so sales are virtually zero, planes are down and GAMI is backed against a corner
  20. Steve the owner of the plane went through some details in the 3 minutes he had. But basically everything that the fuel touched needed to be replaced (poor man explanation)
  21. this is from yesterday. Minute 56-57 on is about G100UL. Looks like they will be stopping (or proposing to) the sales of G100UL. 1st case of totaled aircraft due to G100UL https://sccgov.iqm2.com/Citizens/SplitView.aspx?Mode=Video&MeetingID=16468&MinutesID=10778&Format=Minutes&MediaFileFormat=mp4
