Default RE: pylon prop pitch gauge

This is the Prather pitch gauge. It has been around for many years. There must be hundreds of used ones out there. Enquiries in the right places will probably yield one. If you intend to make one you wil have the tedious task of having to calculate the pitch angle for however many prop stations you wish to check for every pitch you intend to use.

Good Luck!
