T-28 Warbird

Yup, there's a handful of "A"s still flying.

[Obergrafeter]

There are two of the A Models flying here in the San Antonio area. One has a two blade and the one in my hangar has a three blade (a Modification) All the A Models had the Wright 1300 7 cylinder. (Think half of a TBM engine)

[Seafury1]

Yeah, There are quite a few 1300's flying. They pull the aeroproducts prop (the hollow one) and put a baby ham standard three blade on. Makes it look like a big engine radial.


This is an A model with a 3 bladed ham standard.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but there's a bit more to it than a simple prop change

[Seafury1]

There is. Governor change adapters etc. The aeroprpducts is a self contained prop. The reservoir is attacche to the prop.
