I read this thread and watched most of the video:

Interesting stuff.
Has anyone seen the fleet of RV-3s and the -8 that are at OSH and fly on ethanol? They are running injected lycomings and powered by ethanol. Just NE of Aeroshell square. Only got to talk to them briefly, but it sounds like things are going well.
It is reassuring to know that even if 100LL goes away some of our current engines will run on ethanol. Just think ... if the hangar fridge is out of beer, you could just sump a little "fuel" from the plane after the flight instead!
