Menzs 27x10 SPLIT while in flight......
Just wondering if anyone has ever seen this before. While flying I had a sudden change in engine/prop sound. I quickly landed expecting to find a loose or cracked muffler but found my prop split from one tip through the hub and a small ways into the opposite blade. I have never seen that before????
I must confess that the prop has seen a lot of use and the "clear coat" has been peeling/flaking off for a while. I would occasionally give it a light sanding and seal with CA and re-balance if neccessary. I would quess this prop has had several hundred flights over the last couple of years.
