Default RE: Never thought it could happen to ME !!

sorry to hear bout acident, john. last week i was holding fuselage of plane with left hand, starting engine with right hand. engine started in reverse. as i moved right hand to transmitter, my left arm lowered into spinning prop. results: trip to er, 8 stitches under forearm bout half way between elbow and wrist.i didnt think it could happen. been flying bout 20 yrs. it did happen and can happen to anybody. so please be careful, everyone. these things will hurt you bad. and when you least expect it.
