jack saved my but ! Heres the story. I build a tfgs p-47 4 years ago and flew it all the time. It was heavy at 30 lbs due to my first glass job. In a loop the wing joiner let go and i managed to land the plane with the wings flying off on landing. No damage to any of the on board equipment. I rebuilt the plane using monokote( dont freak out) and the new plane weighed 24 lbs.
Heres where jack comes in I was going to fly the bird on a 24 inch prop using my g-45 for power. Jack e-mailed me and told me to cut the prop down to 20In. I did so and the broAdest part of the blade is at the tip. I test flew this morning the p-47 was airborne at half power and at full it was mighty fast!!! I have so much power with this prop.
she tached out at 7600 and the maiden went off without a hitch. Now im putting guns and panel lines on

Thanks Jack that big prop may have done me in
