we USED to get field approvals on 84" Pawnee props on O-360 cubs...
but they quit, something about the vibration analysis we were using not being complete...
I was headed that way until I looked at a new one that flew through a little rain going into New Holstein... it had no paint on the tips.Oldcrowe,
How about the MT? I would imagine its approved already, 2 and 3 blade. No BS hub AD's like many Hartzell's have. I have had 3 MT props on Husky's and really liked em, just a thought...

Lou I have thought about doing just that (would deffinately be the less expensive route) to just have the full inspection/rehab done and clip it in the process and go on. But what I don't know is how much quieter it would be, the only example I've flown is SJ's with a PPonk and 86X3 and while it has to be quieter with less diameter and less rpm, let's just say it doesn't whisper either.Kirby
Why don't you just cut 2" off your 88". It's legal I believe.

Don't know, owner just said it was first trip new. It was on one of the 180's that came in for the short field stuff.Did the MT have the new bigger leading edge? My 7 year old still looks like new but never been in rain.
