Stunning job, just one question. Why did they go with a 4blade prop? It just looks wrong to my mind!
Cheers for sharing

They had problems with the propeller hub.

My character somehow got all twisted up. I was playing the mission where you have to infiltrate the Golden Glow Estate and do multiple things. When I was out burning beehives and fighting I just eventually ran away to view my success from a distance. I first noticed it when I squated down on a tree trunk. Coot..the squatter../simHQ/2011

Certainly a rewarding project.

Maybe a three-blade prop eventually?

What I can make of the german text is that the cause of the ditching of F-AZZJ is still unclear but there are reasons to believe it might have been tied to the three bladed prop assembly. Untill they are certain the three bladed configuration is safe they will continue testing with the four bladed setup. So most likely a temporary measure untill more is known about the causes of the ditching of the other Flugwerk 190 smile
