The clutch only has the thrust applied when the clutch pedal is depressed as
when shifting gears for a few seconds. The propellar thrust is applied for
hours at a time.

Hi Dene
If memory serves me correct a cars clutch exerts a force of about
1700lbs thrust on the thrust bearing, a prop pulls in the region of
200lbs thrust on the thrust bearing.
