Re: What Type of Prop?
Done a quick review of logs. Trying to speed read through the chicken scratch of many years I found no entry of propeller being reshaped. IA’s doing annuals in the past were not very attentive to what they were doing. On prop inspection they said it was a 7651 and it is clearly over stamped a 7648. ...

Thanks George,
I do have a prop log book. Have not studied it but will. With these temps we are having in Texas it will be December before it gets cool enough to do a static rpm check !

Re: What Type of Prop?
My flight to Oshkosh this year was very slow ! I was told by the IA during my annual that I had a climb prop. ( Im still green behind the ears on all this airplane stuff.) Anyway I checked for myself the stamp on my prop this week and it was stamped DM7648. It will get off of the ground very well bu...

Re: 75th Reunion Celebration group parking at Airventure 202
Not sure where the repair or judges building is.
Is that next to (south) of the Vintage Bldg ?
Planning on being there Friday or Saturday morning.
Will we use VAP parking sign our windscreen ?
