I can enthusiastically recommend the Whirlwind constant speed prop.  Those
who are running it will swear it's the best on the market.  A little pricey,
but it you want the ultimate in performance, it's the way to go.

Bob,

Is it possible in the UK to replace the CAP 140 on a flying Europa with
another prop (Warp Drive, Airmaster, Whirlwind, WoodComp, etc.)?  Can this
be done economically in this case?

Any info on servicing, spares, pre-purchase checking  (and anything else I
should know) would be appreciated.
