It would be a bit difficult proping a seaplane from the front, so I
guess it's not a bad idea to stand behind the prop on the float;
however, for a land plane, (unless you do something bizarre like I did)
proping from the front is safe (if you are taught how to be out of the
way when the engine catches). - Mike
