Friday a old Bellanca was landing at Anacortes, downwind. The pilot told me his feet got tangled up. Black marks on the runway and the plane in the grass with no gear. Neat old plane, the one with the two little vertical's on the ends of the horizontal. It was based at the dry side of the state and looks in pretty good shape on the surface. There is a few issues such as fish hooks on the aileron cables. The tail was in a fairly deep ditch but with a gentle slope so I think that is why there was no prop strike, the front end was over the brow. It has a franklin, 6 cylinder but a nice aeromatic prop that looks like new blades, or rebuilt. Nice paint, looks like fresh metal on the edges and nice decals. I know nothing about these things but think some people are in love with them. I don't know the owners plans but could find out.
The question, is this prop worth pursuing and being on a Franklin would it even fit a 320 and would it be worth the effort. Being a fellow with too many projects this would have o be a real deal.
