What I learned today

[Ravioli]

I was over at the hangar doing some cosmetic stuff on the RV.

I noticed I had bugs on the BACK of the prop! I've always checked the leading edges and blah blah but I have fancy new prop with <20 hours on it and it's white on the front, black on the back.

She really is a BugDestroyer.

You must be flying backward

 

[GlennAB1]

You just learned you fly a bugsmasher?

 

[Stingray Don]

So the bugs were passing you?

You had bugs on the face of the propeller. Propeller terminology is a bit odd.

Fly faster...you'll outrun them critters!! Yep, the back of the prop (or face...whatever) is part of the wipe-down routine for me.
