I see on Airframes Alaska website that they are offering a STC for a fixed pitch Sensenich Wood Composite propeller. Has anyone had any experience with these on PA-18 and PA-12 with O-320 engines? Specifically, how do they compare in performance to the McCauley "Borer" prop? My PA-12 currently has a Borer which performs great but I feel my plane is a bit nose heavy and that handling would benefit from the lighter weight of the Sensenich. I think it saves about 16 pounds on the nose.
My PA-12 flies and performs great but it takes a lot of trim for the various flight configurations when flown solo at light weights.
Thanks.
Gary
