    A First!

    No, it wasn’t Rich (Redneck) that curled this BRAND NEW (receipt in pocket) prop…it was Chris (Redneck JR) this time.

    …it’s a family tradition.

    FYI, if you weren’t aware, Rich had sent two prop repair shop owners sons through medical school over the last few years.

    Rick, this photo was taken after their trip…around 4 pm. They have extra prop(s) on board. This happens to Redneck so often it’s expected and kind of let down if it doesn’t happen.

    Completing medical school in just a few years is pretty impressive.

    I’ve only managed to wreck one prop, and that was at the 494 landing. What am I doing wrong?

    Note to self: Don’t bother looking if I see Rich with used prop for sale.

    Say it ain’t so Rich.
    might want to think about opening UP a Prop shop,
    then you could take turns with Chris on fixing eachother props.
    You’d be your BEST Customers….

    Count your Blessings it wasn’t a Stainless…..

    I think somebody needs to invest in a SS prop. Those alum props curl if they see a rock coming…. wusses.
