LL Avgas is on the chopping block. AVgas is not going anywhere for the next 30 years minimum. You can copy and post random "lethal" articles online but the bottom line goes way deeper than our back and forth argument and environmental ideologies !! I suggest starting with a deeper understanding and more knowledgeable article such as this 3 part in depth review by Paul. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lemur Posted August 18, 2023 Report Share Posted August 18, 2023 Sorry I didn't realize FAA documents are 'random lethal articles'. " transition to lead-free aviation fuels for piston-engine aircraft by the end of 2030" <- that's 7 years and hopefully well within my lifetime. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LOL but that wouldn't be a surprise. However, We both agreed that lead is bad for us and the environment to some extent but I will still contest is bad for my engine.
