Chris,

Tim Ong's Oleos (Ong's Debongers)  are still working well.  I recently had a "drop-on" landing that would have sent me flying in the old days -- now I just look embarassed and roll on.  In addition, there is no more "skittering" on crosswind landings.  Once the wheels are on the runway, they stay there.

I may need to boost the nitrogen pressure a bit since they compress some with the plane loaded.  This is a negative since I cannot see over the nose when taxiing, but also a plus since the prop ground clearance is greater.

I have no cold weather experience yet.
