"Getting back to the Carbon Tax and aviation topic of this thread, when I was down at YMMB yesterday the cost of AirBP Avgas was about 20 cents a litre cheaper than earlier this year. The cost of aviation has recently fallen! "

Um, the cost of fuel has fallen this month. But it would have fallen 5c a litre MORE if we hadn't had the ta...er "excise" of an extra 5c a litre added as of 1 July.

Edited to add the excise is applied, then GST charged on the total including the excise. All crystal clear on the fuel bill.
