Can you beat $4.31/gallon?

[rainman]

$4.20 at KAQO (Llano, TX) yesterday, and excellent BBQ at Cooper's.

[Browncbr1]

$4.09 KDKX. Been trending down steadily. I expect under $4 soon!

[Ftlausa]

Filled up at Airglades (Florida) this morning for $3.83.  Beat the heck out of the $6.80 they wanted at FXE.

aviatoreb its over five at other Tampa airports. The airport closest to me wants 6.50 for their gas. I drive past it on the way to Zephyrhills and a few more Metallica songs later and I am at my home base with 55 dollar per hour mechanics 30 dollar per hour CFIs and 3.60 for gas and 250 a month for a t hangar. I love this airport.

$30/hr CFI?

 

I haven't paid that in years.

Finally got to fly again but had to spend 5.77 but worth every penny.

[ryoder]

Yeah 30 bucks for an independent CFII MEI.

There's lots to like at Island airport.  The cheap fuel is just one more benefit.  

[carusoam]

That's a lot of Metalica..?

Gas price is dropping every day in Nj..

$2.40s. Regular cash price. 100LL will be weeks or months behind...

I just paid $3.55 for fuel at KGTU.  And since folks didn't believe it last time (since airnav had an old price)  I attached the evidence.

I like the very bottom and 3.55 makes for a very nice day.

It is now 3.45 for residents at KZPH and my destination for my next flight is only 3.39! I am flying to St Augustine next week to take some photos of some beach front property for my father in law. I was pleasantly surprised to also find a super close nearby airport with cheap gas and a seaplane base.

Yes it is $3.37 in St. Augustine. I'm only around 15 miles north of St. Augustine and I typically refuel there. I have not seen $3.37 in a very long time. I jokingly told a friend of mine this morning "they are practically giving it away" well not quite, but it's very easy to get overly exited about fuel for $3.37 a gallon

[carusoam]

I wish Cosco could sell Avgas...

$2.05 per gallon, cash price for regular mogas, membership required...

Is anyone's business or personal income negatively effected by this rapid price change?

I know a couple of us are in the energy business. This may effect them...

I am wondering who else may be caught out?

Anyone have a feeling of how long it can stay down ?

It looks like horizontal drilling is having a huge effect on OPEC...

Or is it OPEC is having an effect on horizontal drilling?

Best regards,

Sorry. That is obviously photoshop.

Paid $4.68 today at home in Byron, CA. (C83) I guess we're behind the times.

You live in the Twilight Zone. Wake up! The walls are cardboard, the bushes are lichen and the roads lead to nowhere. There are aliens about to eat you for dinner. It's not real.

Deep Rod Serling voice: Imagine if you will - a World with cheap avgas, inexpensive CFIs, affordable hangars, and low cost wet rentals.  This world is not real, but one which we call.....The Twilight Zone.

 

The way you can always tell you fell into an episode of the Twilight Zone is that is you and the rest of what you are looking at are unexplainably black-and-white.

[ryoder]

It's not the twilight zone because the guys doing helicopter training want 350 per hour. Just talked with them the other day.

Not mention a little bit stylish and cool.

KTRM $3.75

[M016576]

3.75... I wish...

I noticed the price at our FBO dropped down to 4.77 last week... I immediately had them top off my tanks (about 70 gallons, since I had 30 already in there). I guess that was my best attempt at "fuel hedging" after a year and a half of $6+ gallon fuel across the pacific NW.

Honestly, I'm pretty impressed with the FBO dropping its price as quickly as it did. Gotta love that free market economics.

[Hector]

$3.39 in St Augustine KSGJ

[RocketAviator]

Anyone know how one might buy avgas on futures? At 3.75 I might be in for one or a couple thousand gallons!
