Help with air pockets.

turner,

There are now many more types of non-stick coatings used for cookware. I believe the pan your brother has uses the Whitford Xylan coating but there are apparently several grades with different oven-safe temperatures. It looks like your brother's pan is on the lower end of the range.

I have made three thin crust without air bubbles forming under the crust by using very little oil. 

The strange thing is, I don't remember having this problem until this year, when I had to use a different stove.

I used to use gas, now electric.  I have no ideal why that would change anything.....  I know that gas lets of moisture and electric is dryer, but I at least seemed to have found a fix.
