Prop damage on runway.
« on: May 15, 2004, 02:53:29 PM »
I landed a 109G6 on A1 today, and wrecked my prop. I made a three point landing (bounced once) and rolled (no brakes) to about 20-30 mph when suddenly the prop got damaged. Tail was down all the time. Could be a map bug?

Same place tonight my prop got damaged while I was on approach. I first thought I had hit some trees or something, but my gear was down and undamaged. Just glided the last hundred feet or so to the runway. What gives?

Happened to me too!  Yak9T, Northwestern spawn from A1.  About 1/3 way down the runway prop blew up while rolling.
