POSTING THIS AS A REPRINT FROM BUDD D: don't know how to start a new thread but I wanted to get the word out on the Forum about an MT prop failure we had here in AZ last weekend. A two-blade MT on a new production Great Lakes threw a blade. The pilot magically made it back to the airport. If it had been a Harzell, I'm certain the engine would have been yanked off but the MT was light enough the pilot said everything became a blur but he got it back.

I think this needs to go on the forum, so everyone can see it, but I don't know how to do that.
