Default work of art delivered... ww200rv

ever wonder how a prop travels from a prop shop... our ww200rv was delivered yesterday by american propeller via one of their scheduled service runs up the coast and here is how it travels anchored to a travel hub and attached to a customized truck bed.


throughout the buy the communication and coordination with bob for the sale, kevin for the details, and chuck for the delivery has been top notch and i will look to them when i need prop service in the future.

the prop is beautiful. the visual lines of the blade are very pleasing to the eye and have an organic flow that just looks right.


the spinner comes finished and primed and is attached to the back of the hub without any visible screws.


and here it is temporarily mounted to the beast!


i spent most of my hangar time staring at it in a hypnotic state!

Mine came in a box !

The spinner comes without any visibale screws? Mine has screws all around it, is the spinner different for your engine (mine is a O-320).

Default WW Spinner with exposed screws?

You have a Whirl Wind Aviation spinner with exposed screws? Never seen one like that. Their stuff is slick.
