Module 17 Cat A (Jan 18)

The document provides information about aircraft propellers, including definitions of key propeller terms like blade back, blade stations, and pitch. It discusses propeller materials, maintenance considerations like storage, lubrication, and wear detection. Propeller systems are described, such as de-icing elements, pitch changing mechanisms, and hydromatic propellers. Potential causes of aircraft vibration are also listed.
