3 blade Hartzell v 3 blade McCauley

in General Discussion

I need to buy a new prop. My PA-28RT-201T has an existing straight Hartzell 3 blade. I'm looking at either a 3 blade scimitar McCauley or a 3 blade straight Hartzell. I'm ruling out MT because their lead time is too prohibitive.

Which would you choose from your experience and why?

I'm in the UK.

    Hi UKTurbo,

    Others who made a similar choice may respond, but here is an earlier article in our magazine from Scott Sherer who put the McCauley Simitar on his Turbo Arrow:

    Hope this info helps,

    Regards,
