Default Catto rear plate loose.

Mornin' all,
I was busy loosening my prop bolts this morning in order to add a spacer behind the front spinner plate. When I took the prop off, the rear prop plate, which came bonded to the prop from Craig, fell off. Is this any particular problem? I was simply going to put it back on the flange bushings and add the prop and go fly.

Thanks,
Pierre

Hi Pierre, can't help much here as Craig just called about a week and a half ago to tell me the wood for my prop had been cut. It is supposed to ship around the middle of January. First flight looks like late March so I need to be talking to you about transition training in the late February, early March time frame. Will PM you next month to get a date firmed up.

Default My opinion

Not a problem. If it is there as a spacer/crush plate it will still serve that function. If in doubt call Craig Catto.
