Hi,

Im posting this, i know its been said time and time before but i thought once more wont hurt anyone beginners and experts..............

BEWARE of the Danger of the Props................ you might think it will never happen to you and ur allways carful, but take 2 seconds more and think before you start your plane.

Ive started my plane 1,000 times and i go through all the checks, i flew my plane for a few flights, decided to go back up got a fellow club member to hold the plane whilst i started her, and for some reason when it started it lept forward, maybe he wasnt holding it tight enought who knows but what i do know the prop hit 3 of my fingers and luckly for me thier still attached, but cut very badly as ive spent the last 4 hours in hospital....

So the moral of this no matter how good you think you are or how careful you think you are just spare another thought about the potentional danger. Im only saying this for YOUR saftey and not to be a victim. I think from no on i will use a proper starting stand........[&:]
