It's just all politics guys, we know that even the 100LL issues is really not an issue. I agree the new fuel needs to get us from point A to point B but all this bureaucratic cramp that has to be met is just a bunch of paper pushing. I think that the engine manufacturers should be more involved than they are but they probably just want to sell more engines. We are driving 50 year old airplanes with 100 year old engine technology. And 99% of that reason is because the certification process is so expensive and complicated. We have created a mountain out of a mole hill. I ain't going to get any better so enjoy it while we can before we all park our birds in front of our houses as monuments

The funny part of basic arithmetic
As lead has been (hysterically) removed from everything ELSE,
the same total amount of lead in AVGAS suddenly becomes statistically larger as a part of what is left to worry about becomes smaller. In Maryland, I ordered some brass fixtures for the restrooms. Stylish, eh? Two online orders got cancelled. I wondered, "What gives?" The State of MD had issued a law making it illegal to sell brass in the state UNLESS it had been certified manufactured in a lead free process. And the initial idea of waiting for FAA to pick winners and losers is, itself, a losing proposition. Ultimately, the private sector will decide whether or not to be bound to just how much of certification requirements.
