Right, Finn!{:>)

For those of you not present, Rich was flying with one of the Prince Props which have that "bent" tips. But it does look the world like a metal bladed prop that had contact with the ground.

So that's why the tips on his prop are bent ?! :)

Hi Rusty,

Yes, Rich told me about wheel landing with a prop that was longer (well, maybe not now) than he was used to. Just glad no worst than that. The prop he had on enabled him to get up to 6600 rpm he stated - forgot to ask if that was on take off/static or in the air. Still looked and sounded good.
