RE: Aeroshell 500 Prohibited
Kris, I actually spoke to Shell Tech Adviser at Houston. He said Aeroshell 500 being their first gen turbine oil really is an old formula and not at all surprised with our result, but your 560 being their gen III should be way better. So we'd be happy to give you a full report when the time comes.
Tony, here are some data I gathered on the flash points of different oils:
Aeroshell 500 at 280C
Mobil Jet II at 265C
KingTech Oil 209C
We formulate our oil to be burnt off easily and cleanly at a lower temperatures in comparison to most of turbine oils which has a minimum required flash point of 260C. Since our EGT is generally lower in its class, and like Dirk mentioned, that during engine running the oil is constantly being injected, ie. replaced and then burnt off, I respectfully think, it just may or may not be the contrary to your assumption that why KingTech is incompatible to Aeroshell 500.
