Hello from Ft Leavenworth KS!
I recently recevied an old wooden propeller from my grandmother; my grandfather had "dinged" it during a high-wind taxi incident many moons ago. As a 14-year Air force flyer, I've been salivating over it for some time now...Sadly, my grandfather passed a few years ago, and I can't remember what type a/c he was in at the time.
It's a 70" wooden prop w/ brass leading edges, canvas patches and Aeronca/Sensenich stickers on each blade. There are 6 hub mount holes, 2 of which are aligned with the blade axis. The serial number (?) on the hub is L2985.
I'll take any and all input--this is a neat site!
