Been told that by 2 different prop companies that do my race props. Also I have seem the out come of people that have them worked and they are worse off. I had one repaired and it was never the same. If you know other wise then fair enough.

Obviously you will have to forgive my infantile sense of humour, I just assumed he was asking "What have you" not "WHY can they not be reworked" However best prop I ever had was a 26 Drag downpitched to 25. Was missile quick in VP 2.75 acceleration was amazing with good top end.

ahh i see, i must admit i can not speak on the subject of re- pitching as i have had no experience with that, i was more along the lines of cupping, thinning, balancing etc. I guess that with the written word, things can be mis interpretted.
All the best
Paul
