Sounds awesome. Are you going to store the gas in your car? Have a good way not to fumigate the place?

that's my dilema... I'm using a small 1.25 gallon can with no vent, and I've got my windows down about 3" so hopefully thats enough. I thought about leaving the can sitting next to the car, but I don't want to draw the attention of the very protective cops on base. Any ideas?

Any chance you can store your gas at the club?

No, it's just an open field with a covered awning. No place to secure it really. I really hope the sealed container doesn't stink up my new car!

I'd get a vented container and keep it in the trunk. Or, fill a coke bottle up (plenty for two flights) and keep it in a cooler with an ice pack

Id just try it and see what happens. I have found the smell doesn't stay around for long after the gas is gone.

A coke bottle in a cooler is a great idea. The plane still might stink things up a bit though.

argh... I don't like stink. It's a brand new Audi Q5... with no trunk as it's an SUV. I like the coke bottle in the cooler idea, might have to do that one.

I hauled my gasser in my car, didnt really notice it stinking. I'd say if you plug the exhaust after it cools it would help a lot. That would also keep oil from dripping out.
