<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>The biggest problem with those pretty
props(12/12s)--besides how bad it hurt your wallet when you broke one--is that
the tips would hit some kind of a harmonic flutter during the noise check
at the Masters or the Nats and you'd have to come back for a retest.
We had 'adjustments'--but I ain't tellin.' I thought they were
mahogany.</FONT></DIV>

<DIV><SPAN class=406062618-17112004><FONT face=Arial color=#0000ff
size=2> I remember when the first APC props hit the pits the
primary reaction was at how ugly they were. A few guys painted theirs. But
then we saw that they gave you about 1/3 better vertical and all the other
props were history. I still have an MK 11X8 prop. When it came out we thought
the 8 pith was huge. I kept it because with it's 30 maple laminations it
is a a very pretty prop. Except that the finish has lost it's gloss after
18 years.</FONT></SPAN></DIV>

Props<BR><BR><BR>> Speaking of props<BR>> Yesterday my neighbor came
over with 2 plastic bags of wooden props<BR>> (10/bag).<BR>> They
are labeled REV-UP with a 12 left of the hole , a 5 right of
the<BR>hole,<BR>> and a 2 above the hole. Looking at the pitch of the
prop it definetly gets<BR>> very straight up & down out towards the
tip(less pitch).<BR>><BR>> He said a "friend" found a box containing
23 of these bags on the side of<BR>> the road, musta fell off a truck.
He was asking me what would they be used<BR>> for & what are they
worth - I guess he's thinking he can sell 'em. I told<BR>> him I didn't
know but I had no use for 230 wood props of the same pitch.<BR>>
:-))<BR>><BR>> Anyone familiar with such a prop.<BR>> I've never
seen a wooden prop of this size with varying pitch from a
5<BR>down<BR>> to a 2. I'm not sure that's what the marking means but
it fits my most<BR>> accurate measurement system
