I just tanked up with 100LL at nearby Bartow (BOW) for $3.55, another nearby airport had $3.29 before they ran out. How's prices elsewhere? Perhaps airshow budgets will go farther now.

Craig,
Up here in Maryland, my airport, KESN, has about the cheapest 100LL around at $4.50/gal. It was just under $6.00 this summer. Consequently, I've flown my Yak about 50 hours this year and did not go to either Sun & Fun or OSH...just could not afford the gas...cost over $400 to top off the tanks ONE time! Thank goodness for the airshows I did where I left with free full tanks!
I had a conversation with the airport manager the other day that really concerned me. He said he is having a hard time finding 100LL to buy for the airport. That's why the price is so high up here -- 100LL is no longer locally available and must trucked here from far away.
I hope they start making 100LL's replacement soon!

Yeah, yeah, you guys all have cheap gas. Must be nice!
But, you don't get to live here in the People's Republic of Maryland. This is a state that, and I kid you not, charges sales tax on the air you get pumped into your SCUBA tank. Yes, they tax the air!

Looks like $2.99 (Self Service) at Suffolk Virginia might be a record!
They also sell Mo-Gas right next to the 100LL pump. Can't remember the
price, but it's cheap. One guy here in New Bern flew a Cessna 180 and
182 up there that had long range tanks, filled both, then filled the
passenger space with large poly fuel tanks. It was actually cheaper to
fly to Virginia to get this fuel and then lug it back than it was to
purchase it locally. I've never been able to understand how 100LL can
vary in price by as much as $2/gallon within a 150 mile ellipse. Maybe
some expert can explain it some day.
By the bye, Suffolk is a nice place to visit. Lots of heavy iron
warbirds including one WHOLE LARGE HANGER full of Russian designed
fighter aircraft! You need to walk around and ask... They'll let you
in, and you can just walk around and look without supervision. They fly
the American made stuff on the weekends typically. So far, none of the
Russian stuff has been restored, but a lot of it is in amazingly good
condition.
