Not sure what all the fast talk means, but it looks like aviation oil is "not like the others".

I have always thought that the best way to do oil analysis was by cutting the filter in half (if you have one) and sending it off. Several people on this forum have made reference to Blakstone labs being a good oil testing lab. When I go onto their website, they suggest that you take your oil sampler from the dip stick. I would like to have this forum's comments on the reliability of the test results by taking the sample this way.

I am curious as to what people's oil analysis results for Iron and Copper are? I have only had 2 oil analysis results - so no definite trend established yet - that too with different oils both time (aeroshell 100W and aeroshell 15W50). Hence I am not so sure whats normal and whats not. My Iron count was 49 and Copper was 22 - both supposedly green - but wondering what other people see. My engine is about 1800 hours old .. Thanks in advance...
