Midwest Unairworthy Propeller Source?

I'm looking for any old props you may have laying around the hangar. Cued
tips? Great. Bent? No problem. Tips shattered? Fine.

These will be used as decor in our aviation theme-suite hotel in Iowa City,
IA. I will pick up if you're close enough!

Email me at if you've got any props you care to part
with. Trade-outs for nights in suites always a possibility!

you might ask that people also include a note telling how the prop got
that way. could be interesting.

When the men on the chessboard
Get up and tell you where to go
And you've just had some kind of mushroom
And your mind is moving low g

Not a problem. I can go pick them up after Jay does the e-mail/phone thing
with Maxwell. We'll figure out what to do after we have props in hand, or in
this case - in minivan. Storing them until we can get them down to Iowa City
is not a problem on this end.

Absolutely! Every interesting piece on display at the hotel is explained,
attributed or labeled.

Our smashed wooden Stearman prop (in, of course, the Stearman Suite) is a
perfect example. A well-known local pilot bought into the old bird, and --
on the very first day he owned it -- was practice taxiing up and down the
runways.

He tapped the brakes, one of them locked, and -- not knowing any better --
he just held on for dear life. (Now, with more experience, he says he
should have just punched the throttle to get the tail back down...) As he
hung in the straps, watching his prop beating itself into the asphalt, I'm
sure he never dreamed that he would one day be immeasurably enhancing an
aviation theme suite!

Okay, thanks.

I take it they have a bunch of old, bent props laying around for the
picking? What do I have to do to get some of them?
