"Much of the avgas sold today uses less than the maximum amount of lead allowed by the current 100LL specification and already meets the new “very low lead” specification."
Sounds like the FAA put a new name to the fuel to please the EPA.
I hope this leads to certifying a newer, lower cost, unleaded fuel.. But, if the FAA just defines a tighter tolerance that most fuels already meet, where is the big leap?
