Default Dealing w/ 100LL Gas Prices

I've got a few things to do first, but I'm about to start work on a stripped down application that will allow folks to EASILY add the latest price of fuel at their home airport (I know this is available from airnav.com, and I use it occasionally, but that data can take 48hrs to go live). Last Saturday gas was $3.09 at my field - Sunday it was $3.59. Ten minutes north it was still $3.09 (I didn't know and spent an extra $10 on a fillup).

I'm thinking a VERY SIMPLE page that lists the last 7 days worth of data - sorted by state, then identifier. You update the price - it's live. Instant.

Still on the boards but coming down the road.

Just FYI and best,
Doug

Default Gas Prices

Great idea. You should get with Dan Checkoway to get it WAP enabled so you can enter an identifier and get the latest price. Please allow international airfields to be entered, too!
