Hubly disagree. Malmi, jan and feb: The FBO was adding antifreeze to the
100LL, "compound".
Same stuff was added to the club planes here in Lapland at the April
skiplane camp. Fuel tank samples are not taken below zero, because if
there would be water it would be frozen on/in the drains. Good chance they
would not close at all afterwards.
In Lapland we add petrol and diesel antifreeze (some kind of alcohol?) at
the start of the freezing temperatures once and every time the cars are
returning from the South, having been in + degrees. And yes, we have seen
frozen filters and fuel lines many times. But then you are living way
South eh?

Absolutely not, and i really enjoyed it. Would have taken another litre,
if i would not be in such a hurry to see your project :-)
