Re: prop shop
I know that there is a prop shop on the airport at Mariana, Fl. Hope that helps.

Avoid them!
Never go anywhere near the Marianna prop shop! They just about caused my gearbox to fail on my Air Tractor because the prop vibrated so badly.
Sensenich propeller in Gainesville, Ga will pick it up and do the best job you can imagine. They fixed my Marianna mess-up!
Best,

+1 from me, too. That shop has been there for a long time (since 1982).

Yes they do...mine is a Hartzell. The name has no connection to Sensenich Propeller factory. I've never been happier and their service trucks have racks with prop bolt holes for transport...very professionally done.
Best,
