I mirror the exact same feelings. I'm within a year of being finished with
my ES, and I was committed to buying a brand new IO550 too. At least we do
have a few months to see what happens. I suppose I'm about 6 months from
needing to order the engine, so maybe that little turbine that was at OSH
will be out by then :-)
I was told that the FADEC engine will be able to use auto gas. Is that
true?

Dan, I share your concern. I'm about 9 months away from needing an engine
for my ES #4 and I've been going thru the same thought process. Should I
buy a new IO-550 at $35k and run the risk of no fuel available in the post
2005 period?
