Am I reading you correctly that Ivan has the 2 blade Hartzell, in comparison to your MT? I don't know anyone with the Hartzell carbon fiber 3 blade. Would be very interested in comparison between the Hartzell 3 blade and the MT. The MT is about $6-7K cheaper than the CF Hartzell, and I very much like the smoothness, as well as the lighter wt over the 2 blade aluminum. I have time in behind both the 2 blade Hartzell and more behind the MT. Nothing wrong with the 2 blade, but my CFO wanted 3 blade, so I went along. The price delta for the MT vs 2 blade aluminum isn't nearly as great as the delta for the composite Hartzell. Allegedly the composite props are less likely to cause internal engine damage if there is a prop strike, but I've not seen any evidence one way or the other. > > No question the 3 bladed props make it significantly more difficult to remove the lower cowl. > > > > -sent from the I-droid implanted in my forearm > > > > > > > > Sorry for the delayed response. Ivan had 6 to 8 knots TAS on me as I recall. He does have the 2 blade Hartzell and I have the 3 blade MT. > -------- David Maib RV-10 #40559 New Smyrna Beach, FL Read this topic online here: http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.php?p=465437#465437 ________________________________ Message 2 _____________________________________ Time: 09:05:33 PM PST US From: "dlm" Subject: RV10-List: Albany NY Is anybody in the Albany area or Saratoga Springs flying a 10?
