| Subject: | Hartzell Prop Goes On Today! |
Listers!
It seemed like a rather momentous occasion today since the Hartzell CS prop got
mounted to the front of the 'ol RV-8 project!! Yahoo! I really like the looks
of the non-blended airfoil blades. They just have a more traditional, mean
and manly look, IMHO. The 72" dia also has those fatter paddles which looks
cool too.
Just two weeks from initial engine mounting to prop installation. The FWF controls
and wiring are done too. All of the CHT/EGT/PSI probes even worked the first
time!
Anyway, just thought I'd share. Cowling goes on next, then the baffling... Wish
me luck. ;-)

Matt, what a beautiful lookin' 8!=C2- Makes me wish I hadn't sold my 8 la
st fall. I had the same prop on mine. If you think
it looks good, just wait until you taxi out the first time!=C2- I still r
emember taking mine out the first time on a warm, summer
evening, with the canopy slightly ajar and those big paddle blades playing
a symphony for me. Heavenly....

One thing to consider. With the prop on, you are likely to rotate the
engine, even very small displacements defeats some of the preservation. Not
a huge deal, depending upon conditions, but I held off as long as possible
before mounting mine.
