    Well after discussing finances with the wife, I have decided to go with a fixed pitch Sensenich prop for now and just get it in the air. I will save up for the whirlwind or maybe an MT for a couple of years while flying with the fixed pitch. I found a nice 76" Sensenich with only 78 hours on it and purchased it. I had the seller ship it to Memphis Propeller for a repitch and i now have it in my hangar. However, I needed a 2" prop spacer and had to order it. Was due in tomorrow but I just got a note fom UPS that the shipping is delayed due to weather. The spacer is stuck with UPS in Hodgkins, IL until further notice. Once I get the spacer, I will mount the prop, fit the spinner and will be in the air soon thereafter. Two weeks maybe.

      Congratulations Eric! I'm sure the prop issue is very frustrating but look at all you've accomplished. Looking forward to some photos/video. Mike BearHawk #1250 KLXT
