That's all fine and dandy....but I have never heard of a MAS prop failing.....
....ever, ever. Every guy that has posted on these Forums that sliced his fingers,
hand or arm to ribbons....has done it with an APC prop. Every prop that has
thrown a blade is an APC.....never, never an MAS.
I turn MAS props to 18.1K static, and over 20K in the air....never, never a
problem. I can't understand why Guys try these scare tactics about MAS props.
The dangerous props are the APC's....they break easily, they throw blades, they
are way too sharp....and are just flat dangerous....plain and simple.
I won't stand for the premise that MAS props are somehow dangerous, more
so than any other plastic prop. I have been using them since they first came out
around '71 or so....they are strong, efficient, and reasonably priced.
I have taken MAS props off airplanes and replaced them, because they were so
beat up....and had been thrashed upon so many times they became unsightly.
MAS props are way, way stronger than their APC counterparts....
....anyone who has been to the field knows that. [X(]
