[C38] Prop Question

Tue Feb 5 15:41:05 EST 2008

Larry,   I looked all the props out there and decided on the KIWI Prop. I 
was a bit skeptical at first, but now am very happy with the decision. It is 
a true feathering prop unlike the others, and about half the cost. I've used 
it for 2 seasons now with no problems.
