My WO the Very rare and excellent 110 FLT TEC F6.5 oil spaces triplet the views are Absolutely stunning 

Fantastic. I've heard of oil spacing but never seen it in real life so to speak. What are the main benefits? Do glass to oil surfaces perform better than glass to air?

My Megrez 90, the first 'scope I bought (As opposed to cobbled together) when I got back into astronomy

Nice. A good first purchase by all accounts!

Cool down is quicker and less reflection on lenses I would say it’s a slight advantage over air spaced but I’ve never had problem with either to be honest
