The spinner is optional. Is the prop metal or wood? If wood does it have the crush plate on the front? Don't laugh, we had one here without it.

Friends baby-sitting my airplane until I can pick it up tell me there seems to be unusually high vibration above 2,000 rpm. A possible cause is a repair patch on the spinner, although that seems to be a trivial mass change that close to the center of rotation. We think a repair in this location is not legal. Can the airplane be legally flown w/o the spinner? If so, that may help isolate the vibe source. I plan to have the prop track checked and dynamically balanced. The C-85 installed has a taper shaft. Another question: How difficult is it to R&R the spinner on this engine? Grateful for any help.
