I wont go into the entire thing, but the conversation comes up while
building. We're going to put a Rotax 912uls in our Rebel, and one of the
plans is to go flying in Canada at some point. After hearing from Phil
Lockwood at Oshkosh this year, and several years of just general talk
about Rotax's, the general impression about the 912 is that you're better
off if you don't run 100LL, you should use Mogas if at all possible.

So, if you're doing a long cross country in Canada, how do you find
airports that have unleaded (Mogas) fuel for your Rotax? Land, and taxi
to the closest gas station?

Seriously... F-in-law has run enormous amounts of 100LL thru both his 912S
in his CH701 and 912 in his CH601.. coast to coast with Bob's Rambles. If he
can't kill a recipricating engine.. nobody can and his are still running
just fine. Also have a customers Pegastol I look after with a 912S and he
runs mogas and 100LL about equally. No issues.

Main concern is oil scavaging the lead and the new Shell Sport 4 seems to be
working good... as did some other options previously.
