 Experience on a prince propeller: I have built a Varieze using a prince
 P-tip propeller (tip with a kind of mini winglet). Laminated wood, good
 finish. Bought in 1986.

 We flew six years, about 3 to 400 hours without a glitch.
 Very quiet, and low vibrations.
 Cruise on the EZ was 135KT with 115hp lycoming O235

 Aircraft sold since 10 years now.

 Prince may have different products now. This was 16 years ago.

Last month after receiving a number of high recommendations I
contacted Craig Catto about a prop  for my project.   I did order a
three blade which I am picking up on Friday.  Now I am locked into
the peripheral ports because I won't be able to turn this  prop
without them.  However, the thing I want to inform the members of
this list, is that Craig offers FREE propeller design to anyone.  He
wrote his own software.   His props are on Reno winners and high end
aerobatic airplanes so he probably knows what he is doing.  He has a
web site: http://www.cattoprops.com/
