Emergency Landing in a COZY MKIV
mike regish wrote
A question I have is, were the prop bolts safety wired? Doesn't matter...I had this happen to me once...same outcome, un-eventful landing on the runway. With a wood prop, when cold, dry, winter sets in, the wood shrinks away from the previous torque settings allowing the bolts to fail in just a few minutes. All of the safety wire in the world doesn't help. Bob Moore 1/2 VW Powered MiniMax
