Morning all,
I see there is a choice between a 72 and 74" BA Hartzell prop available
for the 180HP motor.
Anyone have any experience with the larger prop for performance/economy
on the 7?
Thanks
Frank

Regarding the paint overspray on canopy:
I had some of this. Mine was light in my opinion. It was easily seen
through but it was there. I soaked a cloth in kerosene and laid that on
the area for a few hours and then used my finger nail and a plastic
scraper and was able to carefully and gentlely remove all of it without
damage to the canopy. I had another area on my canopy that I purposely
lightly sanded and thoroughly painted. Later I needed to remove that
paint. I used the sanding, and polishing system sold by ACS. It was a
lot of work but it did the job. I can see a bit of distortion in
looking through the glass now that it is all done.

The 74" is too long and you will be picking up too many stones etc.
