: Generally, seaplanes will be fitted with larger diameter propellers than their land counterparts. This translates to higher prop tip speeds, some approaching supersonic. Higher speed at the tips relates to more noise. -- Mike O'Malley Is there a trade-off somewhere else in the perfomance envelope that makes the larger prop less desireable on the land based versions? |
