Hello,

Does anybody know where I could find information about the different propller blade types used on the Fw 190?

As far as I could find out, the following types were used:

VDM 9-12067 A : metal
VDM 9-12153 A : metal with external pitch weights
VDM 9-12176 A : wooden

I am trying to find out:
- What were the differences (further to the ones mentioned above)?
- What was the sequence when they were introduced?
- The VDM 9-12153A appears to have not seen wide use. Was it superseded by the wooden blade soon after its introduction?

Thanks,
Roger
