Title: Propellerblade colors ? Post by: pelo008 on October 05, 2006, 02:40:52 PM Hi !
Anybody who knows what colors the propellerblades had on russian aircraft ? Were they natural metal, black, green or grey ? Title: Re: Propellerblade colors ? Post by: Massimo Tessitori on October 05, 2006, 11:00:42 PM Hi, :)
it depends on the type and year. On many types they were all black, without yellow tips. On other types they were auminium with black rear face. On some photos they appear of the same color of the external of the plane, that is white, green or even camouflaged. Massimo Title: Re: Propellerblade colors ?

It was due to the regulation that the end of prop should be visible to the ground crew to avoid accidents.it depends on the type and year. On many types they were all black, without yellow tips.

it appears rarely on photos that I've seen. Sometimes it appears soft, painted by airbrush. Massimo |
