Propeller Identification
Looking for some help with identifying a propeller. I believe this was found in a garage in Essex, after having been bought some years ago at a car boot sale, or similar.
Intrigued to know what type of aircraft it might have been on. With thanks in advance. https://cimg1.ibsrv.net/gimg/pprune....d6cd3870b4.jpg https://cimg2.ibsrv.net/gimg/pprune....07c2a54887.jpg https://cimg3.ibsrv.net/gimg/pprune....53ca42d2ca.jpg https://cimg5.ibsrv.net/gimg/pprune....b1f8f9044f.jpg https://cimg6.ibsrv.net/gimg/pprune....b20d36a080.jpg |
can you type out those serial numbers? might be quite quick to ID

Crikey - there are so many! hopefully the enlarged images assist - Possibly a Hamilton Standard, having zoomed in to Image #4

The TC reference (P13NE) is for a Hamilton Standard 6/5500/F-1 and F-2, used on the BAe ATP/Jetstream 61.

Wow! Thanks very much Dave. That's the one.
Appreciated. Steve |
One hour and three minutes to nail a bit of a propeller
this place is getting slow..... must be the summer holidays................... in the good old days we'd have had the full flying record of the thing by now ;) |

:ok: but 5 years ago he'd wouldn't have taken 5 minutes to type the answer - we're slowing down

Crikey those shots don't show the size of an ATP blade . The whole prop was about 16' in diameter , thus 1 blade should be about 7' long with hub approx 1' .
Don't forget there are 6 blades all plastic in that hub . Seem to remember prop rpm of approx 1050 ....perhaps climb setting ? Sounded like a machine gun when prop deice used , ice being flung against fuselage . Bit quieter when sacrificial plates added to fuselage sides . rgds condor. |
