100LE AvGas is expensive but has a shelf life of 10+ years without additives. I try to keep 6-10 Gallons on hand and another 5 or so gallons of alcohol free gas that I add additives to. In our area many places carry alcohol free gas at a lower price than AvGas. Most smaller airports will sell you AvGas. Even though AvGas its 100 octane it burns fine in small engines and older engines, I run it in my Honda generator and chainsaw (with oil added), I use to ruin it in my 1949 8N tractor till I moved where corn free gas was easier to get. Since it has lead added don't use it in anything that has a catalytic converter.

My Dad was WW-2 and didn't talk about it much either accept some side stories. Found a bunch of pictures he took in England and Europe when I cleaned out my parents house after both were gone, that I had never seen. Would have been nice to ask him about some of them, I can only guess. He use to make comments about war movies, about how that isn't the way it was. Luckily no big outburst, just didn't like the story being told wrong.

Mine were in a round cardboard container, I think we gave them away when we cleaned out my Mom's house 4 years ago. They were well used by then, I think every kid that visited, played with them for the last 65 + years.
