Default RE: Three bladed props vs. two bladed props.

While my DA-100 is definetly quieter with a Mejzlik 3 blade, there is one significant difference all of you have missed. When hand proping the engine, the trailing blade is 60 degrees closer to your fingers than with a two blade prop. Ask me how I know, It's been two weeks now and it still smarts....
