It's Mother's Day, and the boys send greetings to flying Mom's everywhere. They discuss the latest on a promising new 100LL alternative... the difference between a "TSO" and an "STC"... and they decide it is possible to be too enthusiastic a pilot. All this and more on Uncontrolled Airspace, Episode #134 "Uncle Jeb's Backyard Avgas"

(Pictured: The Aviat Aircraft's 110 Special that Dave flew in, and wrote about, 10 years ago.)

Recorded: Sunday, May 10, 2009
