Default Whirlwind vs. Sensenich

Does any one have a "current comparison" of the performance and quality of the 0-360 (180 hp) ground adjustable propellers...Whirlwind GA200L-72 and the Sensenich 2G0MX-C72RG...I'm currently operating the Sensenich 72FM8S9-1 (85) Superior XP IO-360

Thankx
Zman

Default WW vs Sensenich

Our company American Propeller is a sales and service center for both manufacturers. In both cases there have been little known service issues and we feel they are both produced with quality in mind.

As far as the blade technology, Whirlwind's blades had the RV airframe in mind and like it's sister constant speed 200RV propeller both were designed by Jim Rust the engineering force behind both. We have sold numerous of both and the RV operator are astatic about the performance and reliability.

The cost is typically $2,500.00 which includes the spinners dome with blade cutouts and back plate.
