Ernest, George,
Good posts. As for an alternative, I think I may have mentioned the possibilities of butanol as a replacement. It has nearly the same octane, and nearly the same amount of energy per gallon. One fellow I've met is making butanol out of bio-waste and wanted me to test it in my rotary. Not on my first flight! But, it is supposed to be a potential alternative.
Best Regards,
Steve Thomas

Ernest,
All too true, however I can't help feel we are on a transitional path to somewhere, as yet, still unknown, in terms of future fuel use. I won't go into the vagaries, but lets hope it pans out, maybe there will be a range of credible cost effective alternatives. I just wish I knew what the end game will be.
