Oh yes, what's the story with the prop tips?

Post by **Uuoret** » Sat Apr 04, 2020 5:35 pm

Absolutely no idea...!!!

Anyone else know?

I'm sure I remember reading there were two different types of propellers fitted to Viscounts. I thought it was quite early in their service history though, not as late as your photos.

From memory I am sure the early ones had curved end on prop where as this one has square like on Vangaurd
