One of the reasons for the extra checks on the McCauley prop is that unlike the sensenich McCauley props have a habit of having cracks radiate from the bolt holes in the hub.

You may be able to leagaly ignore the overhaul period using the SDMP but for your own safety I would advise at a very minimum you do a dye penitrant NDT check on the hub annually.
