OSHKOSH 2010 – THURSDAY by LOOP

Day four at EAA AirVenture, sees the LOOPTV team once again out and about scouring the world’s biggest aviation event for news, views, and ice cream.

Today’s review of day four at Oshkosh looks at the newest addition to the ever-expanding Sonex range, as DC talks to the kit-building firm about its new single-seat folding-wing Onex. As in “One… X”.

Elsewhere, a whole host of your questions are on the agenda,  and Chuck Aaron provides the day’s flying action, before we sat down with industry heavyweight and engine guru Luc Pelon, boss of SMA engines, for a look at the new 305e engine and his thoughts on the fuel issues facing general aviation.

Another interesting day, and a nice touch with the readers'/viewers' questions. But the potential demise of AVGAS is coming more to the fore and must begin to worry some folks a lot about the future.  Who is prepared to forecast a strategy for GA from microlights to warbirds when the "big boys" (politicians and oilmen) see an easy way out and axe AVGAS sooner, rather than later.

Bear in mind it is not Avgas as such that is under threat, just lead-containing versions. I am sure that appropriate high octane unleaded will become universally available and replace it.
