Avgas Ban in California Moves Forward
Environmentalists last week scored a major victory in their attempt to end the distribution, sale and use of aviation gasoline when a federal judge threw out a lawsuit filed by the California Avgas Coalition that sought to block the effort.

California's GDP is still greater than ALL other 49 states combined.
