Installing a wood prop...
Tonight I'm going to install a prop on my plane (Pietenpol with a Continental A-75) and go up for a quick flight. I've never done a prop install before, so I want to make sure I get it right.
I figured I'll torque the bolts, run the plane for 10-15 minutes on the ground, check the torque, take it up for a brief test flight, then check the torque again. Any tips or things I should be careful for or watch for? I'm a little nervous as I'll be doing it without anyone looking over my shoulder.
