I need to have my Sterba 62 X 68 prop on my M1 pitched a little lower. I know that Ed can get pretty busy and I expect it to be two weeks before I get it back. Since I fly 5 to 10 hours a week and have trips for work that pop up at a drop of a hat it is a pretty big deal for me to have my plane down that long.
I am looking for some options if anyone has any. The prop is for an O-200. I would be willing to beg, borrow, or rent a prop from someone else and would have no problem paying a deposit to cover the cost until it is returned and paying shipping and a reasonable usage fee. I would also consider buying a used prop if anyone has one. One other thought was to just buy a new prop and fly with the one I have until the new one comes. Mine needs to be refinished so if anyone is looking to buy a new prop and wants to save a hundred bucks I wouldn't mind buying a new one for myself, paying for my old one to be repitched, refinished, and checked out by Ed, and selling it for $100 less than the price of a new one. Obviously I would not let it go until my new one arrived so it might be 4 or 5 weeks to get the new one done and then have the old one redone. Please reply to me directly at [email protected] or call me at 904-536-1780 instead of emailing the whole list. Thanks. Brian Kraut Engineering Alternatives, Inc. www.engalt.com
