  • @cantroos

    To say that you are missing the point would be an understatement...

  • @cantroos small, small minds. this is the worlds' fastest piston powered aircraft. think of it like this; a cessna 182 vs. rare bear = learjet vs. f-22. get the picture?

  • @Treetop64 it's not fixed pitch, fully adjustable.

  • Think that prop was off of a P-3 Orion, if I remember correctly.......

  • @edj66 It is a modified Bearcat. Thus the name Rare Bear.

  • Bear Cat? Isn't it a Sea Fury or something?

  • Fixed-pitch prop. I had no idea...

  • @cantroos actually stealth bombers aint that quick or that agile, so it would be more like a ferrari from the 60's against a ferrari of the 80's. I mean an F-18 or a Eurofighter that would be something else. the stealth is a dodgy comparison.

  • so what I have a fan with a propeller bigger than that and it isn't 60 years old, what's so great about all these old fashioned planes, put that in a contest against a stealth bomber and it'll get left in the dust, like a pickup truck racing a ferarri.

  • I think I saw one of those props at a naval shipyard once.
