Post Two Blades Vs Three Blades
Hi everyone, I just have a quick question. What is the difference between an aircraft that has a two-bladed prop for example a C172 and an aircraft that has a three-bladed prop like a C182?. Does the three bladed prop generate greater thrust or is it just a cosmetic thing?

Thanks.
