This guy flies freight on 747s. Maybe he would have some suggestions. There are links with contact information of his YouTube page. https://www.youtube.com/@74gear

My understanding is that the ASTM standard for 100LL requires there to be lead in it. I found an ASTM standard for unleaded avgas, but apparently it only applies to fuels for testing. https://www.astm.org/d7960-21.html

https://www.avweb.com/aviation-news/100ll-drop-in-replacement-impossible-says-pafi-candidate/ Excerpt: Pourreau told Aviation Week the issue is achieving the 104 Motor Octane Number (MON) of 100LL. His team hasn’t been able to do that without adding octane boosters that leave unacceptable...

I consider these folks to be victims of whoever conned them into believing this stuff and sold them fake license plates and documents.

If the sport pilot previously was denied a medical certificate, then yes, they had to submit themselves to to the FAA's medical bureaucracy prior to solo. What I was referring to is the fact that once the person became a sport pilot, no further involvement with the FAA bureacracy is required in...

During the two years during which I exercised sport-pilot privileges, this didn't inconvenience me at all in areas of high terrain, because the VFR altitude rules don't apply while climbing or descending. There is a theoretical issue with the plane not being able to climb as fast as the terrain...

Has anyone come up with a list of aircraft that are expected to be eligible yet?

I guess a DF antenna could be installed for that purpose. The receiver would need to have a database of station frequencies and locations. The receiver would need to know the last GPS position in order to differentiate between broadcast stations on the same frequency.

Well, this case should be fun to watch.
