A process and system are provided for forming shaped air holes, such as for use in turbine blades. Aspects of the disclosure relate to forming shaped portions of air holes using a short pulse laser, forming a metered hole corresponding to each shaped portion, and separately finishing the shaped portion using a short-pulse laser. In other embodiments, the order of these operations may be varied, such as to form the shaped portions and to finish the shaped portions using the short-pulse laser prior to forming the corresponding metered holes.

A high-temperature, high-strength, oxidation-resistant cobalt-nickel base alloy is disclosed. The alloy includes, in weight percent: about 3.5 to about 4.9% of Al, about 12.2 to about 16.0% of W, about 24.5 to about 32.0% Ni, about 6.5% to about 10.0% Cr, about 5.9% to about 11.0% Ta, and the balance Co and incidental impurities. A method of making an article having high-temperature strength, cyclic oxidation resistance and corrosion resistance is disclosed. The method includes forming a high-temperature, high-strength, oxidation-resistant cobalt-nickel base alloy as described herein; forming an article from the alloy; solution-treating the alloy by a solution heat treatment; and aging the alloy by providing at least one aging heat treatment at an aging temperature that is less than the gamma-prime solvus temperature, wherein the alloy is configured to form a continuous, protective, adherent oxide layer on an alloy surface upon exposure to a high-temperature oxidizing environment.
