That's what I figured, as I said I don't know much if anything about general aviation or EAA.

The picture of the drive reduction page looks interesting, I had never seen a prop driven by a belt drive before.
Of all the laws Brandolini's may be the most universally true.

Your bandsaw weighs more when you leave the spring compressed instead of relieving the tension.
