Did anyone else notice that the C195 on EAA's August calendar / wallpaper
http://www.eaa.org/wallpaper/images/...sna195_640.jpg has a backwards-turning prop? Dave

The pitot tube is on the correct wing, so that rules out a backward photo.
It also has an MT prop which also was not factory. "Dave Butler" wrote in message ... Did anyone else notice that the C195 on EAA's August calendar / wallpaper http://www.eaa.org/wallpaper/images/...sna195_640.jpg has a backwards-turning prop? Dave

It has a Russian M-14 engine and an MT propeller. The owner calls it the Bolshevik Gorilla. It is for sale, but I can't tell you where to find it. David Johnson

Someone else said it was, so I guess it was a good guess. I guess. Paul
