Herb,
I've seen the FAA update that they have selected their two candidates for the next phase (III I think). They were Swift and Shell. But I can't find any more information about compatibility goals, and haven't come across a number like 99%. Is that meant to be without modification?
On price, I guess we'll find out. As usual, the speculation mill has churned out very convincing arguments about that ... on both sides.
The whole topic appears rife with uncertainty and confusion, honestly. I look at the Petersen site, for example, to find applications for their STC for Mogas. Would this satisfy the impending PAFI requirements? Even if so, in Lower CT I'd have to fly 35 minutes out and back to the nearest airport that has it. And when was the last time you saw auto fuel without ethanol? Around here, it's been a while for me.
