    Default Sensenich ground adjustible carbon fiber prop

    Sensenich makes a Carbon Fiber, ground adjustible prop for the 0-320 that is supposed to be lighter, quieter, and more efficient that the aluminum props. It is only available for experimental so far.

    Is there a way to get approval for this prop on a pacer without it being certified?

    It would be nice but I doubt there is any way short of an STC.

    I would love to have one of those Sensenich adjustable props that they use on LSA's for my Vagabond, with the quick change plug for climb or cruise. Sensenich told me there wasn't much chance of that happening for anything other than a LSA. Not ready to shell out for a Aeromatic and they aren't approved for my plane either.

    Once again it appears what is best for general aviation is got a red taped caveat. With all the newer designs that are available you would think the promotion of safer airplanes would be encouraged. I can't imagine an Aeromatic being safer than some of the newer prop options. Although they are very expensive.
