To me that is totally irresponsible to post

is a complete teardown after ANY prop strike."
Interesting. I had a prop strike while landing on a Musketeer with an IO360
fixed pitch prop. We towed it to the AI and had runout tests done on the
crank. It was within specs. It was signed off and flew a

Ok, let me qualify my knowledge since it seems others have been trained or
informed differently:
all of the aircraft at the schools I have taught at were for hire, which does

like equipment required, mandatory inspections etc...
and if any of their aircraft had a prop str
Just to let you know that the certified manufacturers (lycoming and

Wow all this talk about prop strikes sure has been interesting and I never
thought I'd have any input on this subject but after yesterday afternoon I
