Recognizing that this issue is driven as much by regulation as by
anything, I'm wondering if there would be any benefit to using shear
pins in these systems. Would it reduce the need for a complete (or
partial) tear-down after a prop strike? Would there be any benefit for
more complex propeller arrangements?

Any thoughts?



I think the best protection for the engine would be to not land gearup,
taxi into super soft stuff, or do any of the other things that cause
prop strikes. G


Agreed, but then again I plan on asking for some spin training when I
get back into lessons again.
