"We've had people try and steal gas here in the past," said Jim Meide, who works at Reid-Hillview Airport. "It's really stupid. Put aviation gas in your car and it's so heavily leaded that eventually your valves warp and you'll end up with some very expensive repairs."

"Sometimes," Meide said, "these people have the notion that since it's racing fuel it'll make their car go faster."


Some airport security huh?
