Jim,
MT's website is pretty lame. Do you have some information packages or
anything that I could be studying?
Also, should an MT prop be damaged or nicked, what is the repair procedure
and timeline?
Thank,

Hi Cal,
I'm putting a couple drawings in the mail to you. One of the P-810-A
spinner, a data sheet on the MTV-9 propeller, and a drawing of the MTV-9 hub assembly
(ignore the spinner on this page).
Like all wood props, a spanwise crack in a blade is bad. Also, a crack in
the leading edge sheath.
Basically, the blades are fairly damage tolerant. A Velocity over rotated
landing at Sun-N-Fun and hit the prop before going around. It was determined
that there were no spanwise cracks, and the propeller diameter was greater than
the minimum allowed length. The fix was to trim all three blades to the same
length, and paint the tips.
Timeline depends on the damage to be repaired. Worst case would be
replacement of new blades from the factory. This time would vary with their backlog,
could be a month. Haven't found out MT Propeller factory response to AOG.
Will advise when I know.
Hope this helps.
Jim Ayers
