    Subject: 2 or 3 blade prop??
    --> RV7-List message posted by: "Don Hall" <dhall@donka.net> FWIW, Aviation Consumer has an article on 2 vs 3 in this month's issue. -----Original Message----- From: owner-rv7-list-server@matronics.com [mailto:owner-rv7-list-server@matronics.com] On Behalf Of Mark Taylor Subject: RE: SEC: UNCLASSIFIED RE: RV7-List: 2 or 3 blade prop?? --> RV7-List message posted by: "Mark Taylor" <mtaylo17@msn.com> MT & Johistroj used to be the same governor. It was developed by the two companies to be sold as an MT unit, but when Johistroj started selling it under their own name behind MT's back, MT broke ties with them and continued development of the governor on their own. Now MT's governor is a little different than the Johistroj. Not sure when all this happened, but it must've been fairly recently. Reason I know this is I just ordered my prop at Oshkosh, and I spoke with the MT guy Eric about this. I asked about the governor specifically, and this was what he told me. Anyways, I ordered the whole package. Chrome spinner and all.
