MT has contact both American Propeller and myself and advised us to send the blades to their Florida overhaul facility for inspection and overhaul. Their chief engineer has assured us that the blades are serviceable. We want to make absolutely sure and are forwarding the blades. Their response has been swift and professional and American has been concerned and involved in making sure that everything possible is being done to assure the propeller is serviceable. MT has indicated that with over 35000 blades in service, not one has failed. That is pretty impressive. The jury is out on my blades, but when this is completed I feel sure the prop will be serviceable. Sue and I were concerned about how we would feel about using a questionable prop but are very appreciative of the efforts both MT and American Propeller are making. I think a thorough inspection and assurance from MT that the prop is ok will alleviate the safety concerns. Pat Brunner
