I may be looking for a new spinner - Bad Storm Damage in Mesa AZ


Recommended Posts

We had a bad microburst last night at Falcon Field, KFFZ.  Planes Flipped and over 30 hangar doors pushed in.  I had a spinner destroyed as the hangar door pushed the nose of the aircraft and am hoping that there was no damage to the engine or re-drive.  

Does anyone have a spare spinner they are willing to part with?

You got incredibly lucky.

Take off the spinner and check to see if your backplate is damaged.

There's a possibility that the standoff that comes up from the root of the prop is bent.

I have all of these, used, removed from swapping to an e-prop and retired the old prop.
