What's even greater about the Tecnam P2006T is that it's certified and even prefers Mogas. With or without ethanol - it doesn't matter. It was designed to handle it, contrary to all other dinosaur Lycs and Contis. So just strap a small bowser to your pickup or in the trunk and fill it up at the regular garage and flick two fingers to the a***oles who decided that 100LL should be 2 squids a litre..

Another great thing: 100LL is scarce in Europe, but there's always Mogas available everywhere as long as you can get to a garage. Carry one of those soft collapsible 50gal tanks in the baggage compartment, land anywhere, hitch a ride to a gas station and fill it up. Total autonomy.

If I could just afford one, I'd buy one tomorrow.
