Who is this errrr person, 'good morning'?

Thousands of aircraft on the UK register fly on MOGAS with CAA / BMAA /LAA approval............

The engines that these aircraft use are damaged by AVGAS.

What more needs to be said than that?

If ABC have, for whatever reason, decided to ban refueling with MOGAS at their facilities, then it's just another nail in Oban's coffin.

Personally I will still call at Oban when forced to do so by weather, requirement for fuel (even though my engine wear and servicing costs will increase) or just because I want to.

Everybody has the same choices to make.

Reading 'good morning's' posts, however, trying to justify the actions of a body (which has no knowledge whatsoever of aviation) making rulings that may/will endanger aircraft makes me wonder exactly what experience of aviation he/she has?

Possibly a candidate for the next consultant Oban International Airport hires?
