There's no doubt about it -- the price of gas is high. Everyone is feeling the squeeze at the gas pump. However, there are some ways to cut costs and one of those ways is to use discount fuel cards. These cards are a lot like gift cards. You load the amount of money you want on the card then use it at the pump or in the gas station just like a debit card. When your receipt is printed out it will show your available balance. Although these cards may not save you a lot of money you can expect a savings of a few cents per gallon.

Americans are ranting and b-tching but there are a lot of advantages to these high gas prices:
1. Less traffic on the road, as Americans cut back on non-essential travel. This also means less pollution.
2. Some people are driving a lot slower to conserve gas. There are still a lot of people who speed up to get to a red light 100 feet ahead, but at least some people are easing off the gas pedal.
3. Traffic-related deaths and auto accidents have fallen dramatically, for those first two reasons given. http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20080722/ap_on_re_us/gas_declining_deaths
4. It’ll force Americans to get off their lazy butts and walk or use public transportation. It’ll also force them to carpool more.
Considering how recklessly many Americans drive, I’m not so sure I want to see gas prices come down. When I consider how fast people some people are driving even with these high gas prices, I’m not sure I want to see gas go back to $1.46 a gallon like it was 7 years ago.

1. Considering that you have palnned a 500 NM flight at an average groundspeed of 120 knots and have determined a fuel consumption rate of 6.5gph., how much fuel should you have on board in order to have a 45 minutes reserve upon arrival at your destination?
2. Assum all the conditions in problem #1 work out as planned. Your fuel tank hold 40 gallons usable, and you departed on thsi trip with full fule. HOw much longer could you fly after reaching your destination and wihtout cutting into the 45 minutes reserve you planned for in question 1?
3. Consider the answer you determined in question2, and assume that you goof and allow an overcast to develop underneath you that prevents you from descending VFR at your destination. A radio check with “Flight Watch” indicates that your alternate aiport, which is 80nm beyond your destination in the same direction. Can you fly to your altenate at a fuel saving groundspeed of 100 knots without running out? (fuel consumption rate is 6.5 gph)

I know that driving with windows down does but I am hearing that the a/c doesnt. I DO remember though having a car that used to get more miles in the winter per tank. 290 vs 350. I am only concerned because I got laughed at when I was running out of gas the other day and I turned off the a/c to “conserve gas” before pulling into gas station.
