There has been a lot of correspondence of late about springs and the prop
strike by one member. Is there a connection?
I would not have thought it possible to have a prop strike on a reasonably
normal landing with bungees correctly set. If, however, this is possible,
will the replacement of bungees with springs help?
Is it also an issue with Monowheels rather than Tri Gear Europas? Is the
Mono more likely (with its apparently less longitudinal stability) to have a
prop strike, even when taxiing, as with the related incident?
As a relative newcomer to this aircraft some info on the subject and member
comment would be useful
