When I was discussing props with William, I said I really wanted a 4 
blade Warp Drive, because it would look really cool.  He just glared 
at me.  So I said I wanted a 3 blade, and he said they are not 
recommended with 6 cylinder engines.  He basically told me to be a 
nice boy and accept the fact that I was going to look plenty cool 
with a 2 blade wood prop from Sensenich, because I would be passing 
the people with fancy blades that didn't work as well.  Highly paraphrased.

Regards,

Dave Morris
