Propellers

Hello Experts,

I am not a technical master and I ask a simple question.
How differ the propellers between a Me 109 and a FW 190.
I am going to see a saved propeller this week, but the original plane model, where the prop comes from, is uncertain.
Can you help me learnig the differences thus I am abel to assign the prop.
Many thx for help in advance,

ginamod

Re: Propellers

Various propeller blades and shapes were used by Bf-109 and FW-190 aircraft. Early blades were metal and later blades could be made from wood.

At the bottom of the blade should be a bunch of numbers stamped into the boss of the blade. That's whats needed to positively identify the use of the blade.

Look at this thread "Propeller blades for identification" from Aug 31, 2019. I posted an image of the bottom of a Fw190 Prop Blade that shows numbers that Mike spoke about.
