Hi Bob,

Yes, after I made that remark I looked it up (should have looked it up
BEFORE!) and I saw that there are several possible colors depending on
octane.

I was going by my experience of flying (once) in a Cessna 152. The
instructor and I went through a thorough pre-flight and part of that
was to check for water and other contamination in the fuel at several
points in the fuel system. I recall the fuel being light blue.
