Kind of ironic that AOPA chose an LSA with a Rotax 912 engine for which premium unleaded auto fuel is the recommended fuel, which can only be found at less than 4% of the public service airports in the U.S. and that number is declining, in part thanks to the total lack of support from AOPA on mogas infrastructure. Wonder if they will also tell the prospective aviation recruits that they are going to have to put 100 LL in the airplane which will double their maintenance costs and is not recommended by Rotax.
