The BFI showed me his prop balancer and told me of having a part depart his engine and take a chunk out of his prop. It set up a terrific vibration but by the time he got his hand to the throttle it had settled out and he was able to return to his home field. Told me there would always be one on any plane he owned. When he sold the Rans and bought a Titan Tornado he kept the balancer. He carried it with him to the Titan factory and had it installed before he flew his new plane home. Ray |
