What do you think - to the scrapper for whatever 68# of aluminum or mixed metals would bring, or to eBay thinking someone would actually buy it as wall art?

Ceiling fan for,the hangar?
 
I'm thinking you need to put the wheels down before you land next time.
Just an idea...


Hang it above your work shed door. That's what we did with the bent prop from the Cherokee many moons ago.
 
This has been in the hangar as a GUMPS check reminder for a number of years. It's time to go.

I think it's from a Lance from before I joined the club.

Pound the blades straight, give it a rustoleum overhaul, and sell it on Ebay.

Not.
 
Scrap value of aluminum is 50 cents a pound, or about $34 currently.
I'm at 104th and Tower, I'll give you double that, $68. It'll look cool in my office or hangar.

Pretty cool item for an aviation-themed restaurant or some place. If I had a hangar I'd use it as either a ceiling fan, or get a big glass top for it and use it as a table base. Think custom table, three legs, 4' diameter round tempered glass i the center with wood around the outside. Coolness.
 
Greg, I'd like to use that at Amelia's Landing. (We call that "art" around here!)

PM me if you want to sell it.
 
Sorry, Jay. Alan already claimed it. Sad, because I think that would be cool for it to live on at the hotel. If Alan changes his mind, I'll let you know.

Would have been a fun incentive to our club members "Hey guys - go visit our old Lance prop! It's in room xxx at Jay's place!"
:)
On the other hand they probably would have said "I was sick of seeing it in the hangar. I'm not flying somewhere just to see it again! :D
