Long shot, but anyone got any contacts who might be able to help? I'm striking out on being able to contact anyone.

Wouldn't dream of getting high octane MOGAS from the local filling station there for my PPonk, no sir...
 
Have been trying the phone numbers in the CFS without luck, will continue to do so. I have a barrel pump ready to go!
 
Well, a post on AvCanada got me a response super quickly, and drums are available; but they are 4 years old. Some Googling suggests that that should not be a concern, and I'll run it through a filter!
 
Fuel should be OK in sealed drums (Canada takes fuel quality pretty seriously, but inspect the integrity of the drums carefully). Good work on your transfer pump -- I had a feeling you'd be needing one at some point. Keep up the good work (and your marvelous photo essay). Be blessed.

Where did you leave your plane when you had to go back to Basra?
 
Hey, Kat. How's that seemingly endless daylight treating you?

Hi Bobanna, the long daylight has been fantastic! I can pretty much plan to fly whenever I like and have daylight conditions. Makes it much easier to get around and do/see a lot.
