Re: Second Life

It's a problem operating piston engines in Northern Canada - they run on high-octane (often leaded) petrol which is hard to get, so you have to fly in fuel supplies to supply your cargo aircraft - which ends up being a bit self defeating.

Turbo-props run on kerosene, or even diesel in a pinch, so fuel is much more available
