flyby201 Posted March 11, 2011 Report Posted March 11, 2011 If any of you have the Harzell "Top Prop" and are subject to the spinner service bulletin... I was wondering which option you might be taking or considering. The options are a "normal" shaped spinner in composite in white (to to be painted) or a "stubby" version in polished aluminum. I currently have a polished spinner which I'd like to keep (it has no cracks), but I feel I need to take advantage of the SB while Hartzell is providing them at no charge.
DaV8or Posted March 12, 2011 Report Posted March 12, 2011 Any pictures out there of the "stubby" one? Personally, I'd go normal, painted composite I think. It's really a shame thay can't make the one you have work, as it is the best option looks wise.
flyby201 Posted March 12, 2011 Author Report Posted March 12, 2011 They have a drawing of both in the SB package, it's shorter, but not that much shorter. After I'd had it a while I probably wouldn't notice (or care). I was just thinking that it would be something different than every other Mooney out there and might put somebody off on resale.
rblauson Posted March 13, 2011 Report Posted March 13, 2011 I have a 77' M20J. How can I determine of this SB effects me? Thanks guys Mark
Kevin Posted March 14, 2011 Report Posted March 14, 2011 Mark: If you have a Hartzell propeller model HC-C2YR-1BFP/F7497 on your aircraft under STC SA02414CH-D, you could be affected by this SB. This is a two-bladed "blended airfoil" propeller, somtimes also refered to as the "scimitar" propeller.
