WW2 propeller at a garage sale

[albertapicker]

Picked up a Hoover by singer composite propeller at a garage sale for under 200$
Ive been told its most likely off of an avro anson
Id be curious if there were any other craft that used this type of prop ... any plane buffs out there?

That's a Hoover Hydraulic Hub Propeller

Fleet 60k Fort trainer used it as well. Using the same Jacobs L-6MB engine(s) as the Anson. Likely anything else using that engine might emplot that prop.

I have no idea but I like it! Great man cave item. And welcome to TNet!

Thanks Charlie,
I've been told it was likely not the Fleet 60K because on hub style and the fact that there were so few of them...
but serial numbers don't match the ansons' either. thought it might have been modified / retrofitted to something else

thanks again!

@Tallone, thanks for the welcome. If I don't resell it, it will definitely be hanging above the door to my man cave. needs some crazy brackets though as it weighs close to 120Lbs

Good job. Kinda like recognizing a Studebaker by it's gas cap.
