Re: hits into the prop-arc
Horst, good question. I imagine a 30mm will rip the blade clean off. A 20mm should do close to the same damage. It depends though if the round explodes on impact or just goes right through. I found a P-47 blade with a 13mm hole in it once, but the dozen or so 20mm in the turbo were the cause of crash, not the hole in the prop. Danny
