Just because you can get away with it--fueling at many small airports is
self-serve--doesn't mean it's legal (or ethical). You might be putting the
supplier of the fuel at risk (esp. if an eco-Nazi spots you doing that).
Just to be clear, I have no problem with people running leaded gas in their
cars--I burn it in airplanes--but it is a legal gray zone that could cause the
supplier some grief.
