Did someone have a tabulation of which props are being used with which engines?I'm running a 72x42 Hegy prop on the A65 but I've heard that a 72x38 or 40 isindicated for the A75 to allow it to turn up to full rated RPM (and HP). I'dalso be interested if anyone has such a prop available.Thanks.Oscar ZunigaSan Antonio, TXmailto: taildrags(at)hotmail.comwebsite at http://www.flysquirrel.net________________________________________________________________________________Subject: RE: Pietenpol-List: prop for A75Date: Thu, 14 Feb 2008 15:58:33 -0500

I would avoid wax paper, it contaminates the wood for gluing the other gusset and for a good varnishing job later. Cut up some squares of sheet protectors available at office supply stores. Holes under the joints does the trick as well.Jim Malley ----- Original Message -----

Since you brought it up Rick, I got the coordinates for the GA30U-612 from BillRewey. When I lofted it out the T.E. looks real thick, actually .70". There isa note on the coordinate page that "the 612 airfoil has a sharp T.E. -- Thetop rear coordinates have been increased very slightly to provide a 0.7" T.E.which will be more dent resistant"Anyone who has lofted this or looked at the full size rib drawing, does the T.E.look kind of thick to you?Skip----- Original Message -----
