    unexpected engine malfunctions

    On the other side of that is the known problems that lead causes. Seems to me that the best solution is to give everyone a cut off point, and say, hey, when we hit this point, you’re going to have to retire that engine, and get one that’s known to be good with lead-free avgas. Sure, it’s a cost, but that’s why you give people time to prepare.

      They have! 2030.

      I’m not sure if it’s a mandate, or a goal, but it’s there.
