Default RE: Prop noise sample
Bob,


The Hamilton Standard props used on the GE T56 engines are old-tech.

They spin at just over 1,000 RPM, in all conditions and speed and load changes are only done by blade pitch changes.


The new C-130J uses different props. Very different, in fact.

See [link=http://ascpa.public.wpafb.af.mil/Images/News/C130J.jpg]this photo[/link], or [link=http://www.air-and-space.com/20040918%20Pt%20Mugu/DSC_3585%20C-130J-30%2001-1461%20115AS%20left%20front%20in%20flight%20l.jpg]this one[/link].
