I would like to know if anyone is still using Precision Propellers 3 blade wood
prop. I think the old
Kolb Co. used one for awhile on their prototype Mk II. Would there be a noticable
overall improvement
if Ichanged to a composite type?

William,
It's hard to say, I & a buddy of mine have used them for hundreds of
hours & were delighted with them. The company was first rate. I heard they
changed hands so I'm not sure how they compare to the original out of Vernal
Utah. If yours was anything like ours, I can't see how you would get a lot
of performance gain. If you have the soft urethane leading edge protection,
I don't think you will gain any degree of "toughness". You might find some
weight savings. ....Richard Swiderski
