Propeller Question
The discussion in the crew room got around to why do some aircraft have two bladed props and some have a three bladed props.
The discussion/arguement was based around the original Piper PA-31/310 being equipped with only a two bladed prop and being slightly faster than a three bladed version that was owned by the same company.
Does a two bladed prop offer any advantage over a three or four bladed prop on a Piper Navajo?
Does the number of blades change the Vmca speed?
