Gas Challenge Resolved
I am so excited to be taking off tomorrow morning! :-D
I ran from work early to start my weekend. After this post I'll feed the family and start packing. After the boys go to grandma's I'll fill in my cross country flight plan with corrections for winds aloft and radio/weather frequencies at my checkpoints.
UPDATE: Although a Piper LightSport's Rotax engine can run on mogas (it's actually better to run on motor gas in the long run due to less build up around the spark plugs), the engine can also take avgas AND mixing should be fine. So we'll depart on mogas but refuel on avgas. The rental place will reimburse us for gas charges upon return.
I'll be taking lots of pictures and make a detailed post upon return.
