Default 3-blade prop?

Is it oil or grease? Some people overgrease the
Hartzell props during maintenance and it slings a bit.
The older Hartzell diaphram props will also leak a bit
before the diaphram goes worse.

As for prop shops, I have had good luck with Sensenich
in Lancaster (they will also work on Hartzells) and
H&H propeller I believe is the other shop. I'd stay
away from the Hartzell factory shop in Piqua at all costs.
