Subject: Commander-List: Fund Raiser Behind By 20% - Please Contribute Today!


Dear Listers,

The percentage of members making a Contribution to support the Lists this year
is currently behind last year by at this time by roughly 20%.  Please take this
opportunity to show your support for the Matronics Lists and Forums!

Please remember that it is *solely* your direct Contributions that keep these Lists
and Forums up and running and most importantly - AD FREE!  If the members
don't want to support the Lists directly, then I might have to add advertisements
to offset the costs of running the Lists.  But I don't want to have to do
that.  I really like the non-commercial atmosphere here and I think that a lot
of the members appreciate that too.

Please take a moment to make a Contribution today in support of the continued ad-free
operation of all these Lists:

Plane goes up to Morris for pre-buy on Wed. Wish us luck.

I have ridiculously vain question - on the later 690's and 695's it seems like
the prop spinner is slightly more "pointy" than an on the earlier models. Is this
just a swap of spinner, or a different prop hub?

Hi Adam,

On the 680T/V/W/681, the spinners are painted fiberglass, whereas I believe they
are aluminum on the 690 and up. I don't know if the backing plates and spinners
from a 690 will fit over your prop hubs and blade roots. My first guess is
that they would, but you'd probably have to do a full engineering study and get
the FSDO to approve it on a 337 form. Also, you'd be changing the airflow patterns
over the nacelle and into the inlet, and the rotating mass of the prop/spinner
combination. Whether that would make any real-world difference is anyone's
guess.

Good luck on the pre-buy! As long as all of the maintenance is up-to-date and the
SBs and ADs are complied with, I think it will turn out to be a smooth inspection
with few, if any, surprises.

Regards,
Stan
