Day was ok. Pitty we don't play the maze. Missing out on the best field there. One thing to say was not happy to see so many fill nipples broke on air tanks during the day.

that said top day. Looking forward the next one.
Nothing to do with nip covers! It's muppets that whack open the valve to fast when filling bottles.

I can't believe filling the bottles from a bulk tank too quickly would knacker the valves, are there any o-rings in the fill nipple? It's probably more due to the sealing o-ring in the valve being hard and unflexible in the freezing weather.

Would have to beg to differ as the OTE staff have blown fill nipples in the heat of summer. Weird that when the planet staff fill the bottles nothing goes wrong.

Also, a marshall at the site, agreeded on the day...........and it's maybe more than a coincidence that the user guide supplied with a new PMI air system states the same fact....... fill too fast and you'll screw it up.
