Just received this from a club member -

"Our flying club previously owned a Cessna 150, and we have a spare propeller that has been gathering dust in the back of the hangar (the airplane was sold some years ago). It is a McCauley Kliptip Met-L-Prop (1A100/MCM6950) that has a maintenance release showing that it was repaired and inspected in 1989 and was never reinstalled. A web search shows that these have also been used as a performance enhancer in Aircoupes. Could you give some indication of:

1.) What the value of the propellor is? New props seem to run about $2500 and this is in unused-after-refurbishment condition.

we have is a green slip marked "Repairable Part" (12/1/89) from Flightstar Inc here in Champaign, IL ,as well as a maintenance release from Aircraft Propeller Service in Wheeling, IL dated 12/8/89. The prop is still in the box that it was shipped to Flightstar from APS.

The history of the part seems to be that it was originally removed and put in for service with APS and replaced with a second propeller, that was then on the airplane when it was sold with the one at hand remaining behind. To the best of anyone's knowledge there doesn't seem to be a logbook though people are still checking. Would this be enough information for you to work with?

Thank you for your assistance with this.

Scott"

Anyone out there that can help? Ideas? Suggestions? Let me know. Thanks!!!
