Greetings,
A friend of mine's old aunty has a propeller which belonged to her late husband. She is considering disposing of it and wondered if I could help identify it. Although I fly a classic aeroplane (Piper Vagabond) I am not an expert with "old" propellers so am looking for help. Firstly, the details:
1. No markings whatsoever on prop
2. Diameter = 80 inches
3. Hub thickness = 4 inches
4. Prop bolt holes = 0.6 inch dia (qty![Cool](http://www.woodenpropeller.com/forumvB/core/images/smilies/icon_cool.gif)
5. Hub diameter = 9 inches
6. Rotation (viewed from front): counterclockwise
Pictures at: http://s361.photobucket.com/albums/oo53/tonnowa/
Hub dimensions appear to be fairly standard (having looked at the Sensenich hub page). I haven't seen the prop myself and the measurements have been passed to me by the aunty. May need to be doublechecked!
Any thoughts as to possible engine / aircraft? You will note that the leading edge of the blades sits forward of the hub.
Regards
Tony
