Well [censored] I just thought I'd see any thing new would pop up on this subject but nothing has changed. I've been using chassis grease for more than half a centurey so I'll just keep it up. One day we will get a lubrication engineer looking in and he'll clear this up once and for all.
Sometime I wonder how any of those old planes survived, I'm sure there were plenty of forced landings back in the day. My flying days are behind me now. Last of the hobby is my collection of Sport Aviation magazines from #1 thru the 90's and into the 2000's. That's when I finally gave up the dream, turned in my EAA membership and started in seriously thinking about selling the planes.
Airplane Hanger is now an Auto Shop and I'm enjoying it more then I ever did the flying.
