RVman:

Hay, High Planes is trying to save your tail and has a very valid commenthere. Sorry, started this post with a picture of 1/2 a apc prop driven through a 1-1/2" piece of 2 X 6 when a blade broke off at 18 to 22,000. Lost picture somehow.Think most all of us older guys have seen some strange things through the years that should be passed on for safety reasons. Once saw a "Hell razor" U control break the lines and go throughtwo chain link fences andstill skipaway like a bullet.Was this guys second run, first run was in the 130 mph range, not really that fast, but if it hit you?????Practice good savety habits with this stuff so you will be around for a good long time. Do not stand in front or side of those engines when tunning. ENJOY
