Prop malfunction with a history of previous failures. Reminds me of a guy I knew that flew MU-2's. He was flying one day and threw a blade. The drag cause by the damage meant that he couldn't maintain altitude and he barely made it to an air force base. Despite the fault.....no AD from the FAA. Then it happened again a few years later and killed a state governor when the pilots couldn't make it to an airport. FAA AD followed.
Punkalouver all I can see is a large white space above your text, is there meant to be a photo there?
