BTW, that copper loaded goose grease is so far superior to the black
graphite stuff it isn't even funny. Just FYI



A former cow-orker had an old Stinson on which, at some point
in time, the threads had been stripped and repaired with helicoils.
He used _Never Seize_ (which I think is grease with powdered nickel)
on his sparkpluck threads and the heli coils backed out.

Dunno if the Never_Seize was to blame, but he said the problem
didn't repeat after he cleaned it off.

In F-4Es we used PhilipsŪ milk of magnesia. It really works.
