CANCELLED - Victoria Flying Club Flyout to CYNJ

Submitted by tweety on

Update 2013-02-11 0945h - Flyout has been cancelled due to a frown from the weather gods.

The Victoria Flying Club is planning a flyout to the Canadian Museum of Flight at Langley, on Monday February 11th (Family Day). They're hoping other COPA flight members (From Flight 5 (Delta) and Flight 175 (Langley) will be able to join them and say hi. All weather permitting, of course... It looks like it may be a little wet Monday.

Penetrating Oils
Machinist's Workshop MagT recently published some information on various penetrating oils that I found very interesting. Some of you might appreciate this. The magazine reports they tested penetrates for break out torque on rusted nuts.
They are below, as forwarded by an ex-student and professional machinist. They arranged a subjective test of all the popular penetrates with the control being the torque required to remove the nut from a "scientifically rusted" environment.
