Sorry to hear about your accident, glad it wasn't worse, and I hope you heal up fully.


ORIGINAL: Charlie P.
I was standing in front of my plane getting my engine started and suddenly there was that unmistakable "BRAAAAAP" sound and blood on my glasses.
That sound... Once you hear it, you wont forget it, nothing else sounds quite like it.

I've been a combination of careful and lucky, and have never had a prop cut me while running. (I have managed to cut myself a few times on the back of APC props while doing things like priming or bolting them on). But I've heard it too many times.
