Yea, how do y'all know that the terms "redneck" or "hillbilly" don't offend me?

Relation to RVs - many times things that might be termed "redneck" behavior occur at the hangar after a good day of flying!

Boy that would be upsetting. I feel really bad for you. All the humor is great but you have a lot of stuff to fix and a lot of time to invest getting it right. with that much damage you might have damaged the Horizontal spar. I would really be bent...
Hope you get it fixed soon,

Smilin' Jack

Must have been a dead stick ground loop! The spinner was definately not turning when it made contact with what ever hit it. Also, from what I can see of the prop, looks complete. A spinning wood prop would be toothpicks!

So back to the drunken hillbilly..........no offence intended

More like a no good worthless bum (enough with the hillbilly comments, let's call him what he is). Hope you find him, but most of all I hope you get her back to flying shape soon.

Default All the funny comments........

But I've got to tell you situations like this really suck.

I was in a shared hangar and somebody pushed a Cessna 182 elevator into my composite prop. One of seven partners in the airplane did it and no one came forward.

Prop can't be repaired and the company that made it is no longer doing GA props. New prop on order and still waiting. Still no one has come forward. I'm no longer in this hangar. As far as I'm concerned all seven of the people are useless. Ended up having to do an insurance claim and who knows what that's going to do to my premiums.

I feel your pain.

Hangar partners suck!
