The Whirl Wind 200RV constant speed propeller,
an experimental carbon fiber prop with nickel leading edges.
-
The prop/spinner combination is 18 pounds lighter than the aluminum blade Hartzell
with spinner and is reportedly smother running, a tad faster, and somewhat quieter.
-
The disadvantages include higher cost and an additional 15 hours
of FAA required test time because this is an experimental prop.
-
An elegant completed spinner assembly was included in the package.
-
I think that this prop is the most beautiful piece of machinery
there is -- especially considering what it is required to do.
