Hi everyone,
The propeller I'm selling has never been used and I do have a potential buyer for it. The owner of the prop can't find any of the paperwork that may have come with the prop when it was acquired.
The reason they know it's new is because it basically sat in a box for a decade or two after their husband passed away before he could install it in a plane. I called Sensenich and they can trace the serial number back to 1973. So this is a completely unused prop that was never installed, but was manufactured 46 years now. Same model as the one they make today, same specs.
My question is, if the paperwork cannot be found what sort of documentation can/should I provide to the buyer to prove this is a airworthy prop and to ensure this doesn't raise any concerns about the airworthiness of the aircraft post-installation?
The prop is stamped with the Serial, Type Certification and model. The engine it's going on is a O-320 which is what the model is rated for, and the plane it's going on doesn't require a special STC for this prop.
Update: Prop sold
Thanks!
