Welcome aboard, Norm,



One nice thing about Whirlwind 3-blade props (McCauley hub) is that in the

event of oil pressure loss the prop will go into high pitch, low drag

configuration.  OTH, they generate a huge amount of drag in low pitch that

can be a handy brake on approach. Whirlwind does a beautiful overhaul on

V530 blades, too.

And the V530 does exactly the same thing should oil pressure be lost.  It 

goes to coarse/high pitch as well.

I just hung my prop this weekend after the Whirlwind overhaul. The prop looks incredible! It looks like a different prop and for what they charge, you cant beat it! I HIGHLY recommend having it done if your prop needs a little touch up!
