I just had a friend loose a prop tip and made an emergency landing, with much damage
to his aircraft.
He showed me the brass leading edge separation was due to rivets failing and wood
discoloration around the failed rivets.
Later he said that one can inspect the two sides if each rivet to see if there
is circle type cracking within the diameter of each rivet.
Also he discovered the double overlap drilled rivet holes that may have been done
during the reworked prop by a prop company, This was not detectable by visual
means, before accident. The pilot, also building a Pietenpol, inspected his
76 X 42 Sensenich and found one defective rivet.
SO A WORD TO THE WISE. From the wiser.

Mike:
I noted in this list, that you had a prop disassemble in flight, and kept the engine
running for your added power to get you where you finally set down.
Is that a bean on the prop ?
How soon did you flip the Mags off ?
Did only one blade separate ? Other than hitting a couple beans, and failing the
other blade
And to think you had just circumcised Lake Michigan 360 degrees in the T craft.
A good survival landing Mike, you and passenger survived without a scratch,
Pieti Lowell

All,
I understand in the past Ken Perkins has been a good source for some of the
metal Piet parts. I am interested in purchasing wheel hubs if he still
offers them. Does anyone have contact info for Ken?
Thanks,

How is it that the second-last sentence of Pieti's post has not prompted any questions
or comments?
Just wondering.
