I would replace them with brand new ones from Airmaster but I gather that c
ould take a month or even two. So it would be a builder who is not going to n
eed them for a month or two. I know it is a thin chance but my poor Monowhee
l is stuck in Jersey. There was no dead stop, the engine was idling, I even t
axied off the runway but the last centimetre of prop is slightly damaged. Al
ternatively the loan of a fixed pitch prop that has been on a Europa would c
ertainly get me onto the mainland. The ferry cost for a 46ft rig from Poole t
o Jersey is fairly eye watering.
