Will someone inform Bill Scott and whoever else is interested on gg that I
have installed an MT prop on a Tiger and it's awesome. Also, as for MT prop
being untested or something to that implication, MT has a lot better track
record than domestic CS Prop manufactures.
The MT prop is a lot better deal than adding a hollow crank and mechanical
prop to an A4K.

Gary... did you finally see a cruise speed increase, or is all of the gain
in climb rate??

Sorry for the trash mail from the GG. I am trying to get your message across
Gary. I think I have done it now.
You had mentioned something about MT might allow the ontroller to be
modified so that it will govern at 2700 RPM instead of 2500 RPM. Do you have
anymore information about this?
Thanks,
Ned

I didn't think your first report sounded quite that good, possibly due to
the 2500 rpm limitation.
The MT prop that Van's aircraft tested on an RV-8 not long ago was
considerably slower than the new Hartzell blended airfoil prop and the
Sensenich fixed pitch prop for that matter.

Cliff,
I am looking at results from a test that Van's conducted on props. It is in
the Fifth issue 2003 RVator. Page 6 tabulates the results. The slowest
constant speed prop was 200.7 mph the fastest constant speed prop was 208.9
mph. I would not call 8.2 mph "considerable." Do you? Perhaps you have some
other test data from Van's?
They tested and compared only one parameter, Optimum Cruise speed defined as
75% power at 8000 feet for the O360 engine. They did not compare or test
climb performance. However, from the incomplete climb rate data that was
collected climb rate variations were on the order of 2 - 5%.
Looking forward to trying out the MT on my Tiger.
Ned

Does anyone have contact information for the fellow who has an STC for a
Turbo on a Tiger?
Thanks,
Ned
