Best,
Thx for asking, no, not yet. I spoke with Craig on Thursday (he really is a nice, knowledgeable guy), anyhow, he had the leading edges done but he was bonding 2 new metal plates to the hub. He still needed to paint it and add leading edge tape that I asked for. He said it would go out this week. Good part is it will be a like new prop. I was torn between keeping it or trying to see if anyone interested in trading for for a Sensenich. The light weight, performance and smoothness is better on the Catto but the Sensenich is pretty much a torque and forget. Have a nice Christmas..Tom
