Your friend who buys 100 octane leaded gasoline at the airport will
find that leaded aviation fuel is also being phased out.  Most
airports now only carry what is called 100-LL or Low-Lead.  It has
about 10% of the lead contained in standard 100-grade Av-gas.  This
is causing problems with older airplane engines.  I guess Low Lead
is better than no-lead if you need it, however.  Incidentally,
100-LL costs about $2.00 per gallon in the Northeast.
