I"ve been following the thread (914 here) and following the yes-buts with 

interest. Back in the bad old days, the T6 harvard had an oil cooler thermo 

bypass. We were told it allowed the cold oil to bypass the fine core of the 

cooler (it was COLD on the prairies) in order not to congeal and blow the 

cores. The threat was called 'coring', and woe betide the cadet who forgot 

to select "bypass".Then when she warmed up, one pushed the knob in and went 

burbling down the taxiway.

At least I think that's how it went.

PS The fine was a week's worth of carrying a P&W Wasp R1340 cylinder by the 

exhaust pipe - in the left hand in order to be able to salute. It started 

out weighing several pounds on Monday - by Sunday one had a huge bicep - I'm 

told.
