[AJD] 1st Tractor

I have contemplated draining the Cessna 152 tanks at the airport when
the Fbo guys were not looking and putting some in.. I figure it would
run real good on the blue juice but the lead content might foul it out
unless I was actually doing some heavy duty plowing... Bet the tractor
puller guys would like to have a source of blue juice.. We have run it
in our 1969 Mercury Cougar with the 351 and it seems to have a nice pep
to it.... Somehow the tires just don't last as long with the good stuff
vs the 87 octane stuff..

Dennis,

Thanks for the welcome.  The Falcon 2000 is a nice aeroplane.  I 
thoroughly enjoyed my almost 30 years of flying for Uncle Sam, but 
always wished I had been born a generation earlier... P-51's, B-17's 
and all the other birds of that vintage hold me spellbound.  Now that 
I've hung up my spurs, I can focus on my other passion... old tools, 
old cars and old John Deere tractors.  I wonder how that "B" would do 
on 100 octane?

I think Greg caught Santa at a bad moment... I asked for you too and 
got a "maybe".
