There have to be at least six . You're right...there's a lot left to fly, and hardly enough time to try them all.
Just last week, I think I had a flight with a promising F/O who commented on how much jet fuel stinks. I told her I thought it would make a great after shave, but pointed out that avgas smells much better. She told me that the smell of avgas, especially exaust, makes her sick. I checked a fuel door and climbed into the cockpit...she didn't like even the residual odor of the fuel.
I remember sitting in the open doorway of a 182 at fifteen thousand feet, smelling avgas exahust, and thinking there can't be much better than this. I do like the scent of jet, but avgas was always sweeter.
If only it wasn't so darn explosive...
