Jerry, I have a 72" Hartzell which works fine except when the nose gear
collapses.
Where are you by now and how you doing?

Subject: [LML] Prop Diameter
I am just getting round to selecting the prop for my 360.
Could someone advise me what the realistic maximum diameter
is to avoid trimming the tips every time you hit a bump on
the taxiway, or brake hard? I have heard various figures
from 68 to 72 inches, and would like to know what other
people's experience is. I am looking at a 71 inch prop as
one candidate.
Also, can you increase ground clearance by putting a small
spacer between the nose oleo and the nose gear fork, or does
that introduce other problems? Thanks.
Jerry Fisher
