Warp Drive prop cracks

Brian,

I was to understand the blade failures had more to do with the high
compression pistons and not the HP rating. I helped remove a cracked prop
from an IO 240 at a fly in three weeks ago and that engine rates only a 125
HP.

Hi Bruce

Thanks for your thought. I think I can see how that makes sense.
