An ethanol-powered aerobatic plane caught the eye of the media over the weekend.

Among the news reports was one from NBC News Channel, featuring video of the high-performance stunt place sponsored by ethanol plant builder Fagen, Inc.

When aerobatic pilot Greg Poe thinks about going green he thinks about his red MX2 aircraft.

Poe brought his MX2 to Florida for the Sun ‘n Fun Fly-In in Lakeland, where the Ledger did a feature on the ethanol-powered plane.

Poe, the pilot for the only ethanol-powered aerobatic plane at the Sun ‘n Fun Fly-In, said ethanol produces fewer harmful emissions and has a cooler-running engine than a gasoline-fueled plane.
