Hello VAF folks,
I live near Las Vegas and am looking for an overhaul shop that is trustworthy to accomplish an overhaul of my 3 blade MT. It is a MTV12B/183-59B prop. I do have blistering in the composite layer that will need to be addressed and repaired. I am quite disappointed in the longevity of these props, especially in the desert where blade root shrinkage causes unsightly ripples. MT assures me these are only cosmetic, but the prop is starting to look quite sick. I used American Propeller in Redding for initial assembly, but have heard that they charge a fortune. I have other shops identified for this work via the MT website. Thanks a bunch for your input.
