Care And Feeding

摘要

The typical prop on the typical personal airplane doesn't need much attention between recommended inspection or overhaul periods. That doesn't mean it should be abused, however. Some tips from McCauley: 1. Avoid high-rpm operation when standing or taxiing over dirt, or gravel. 2. Never use the propeller as a handle to move the airplane on the ground; severe damage can occur. Always use a towbar or other parts of the airframe.
