Hi there......

I am after any photo refs of a feathered prop. A P-38 would be good, but similar or not will also be just as helpful.

Any help greatfully appreciated.

Merci

Haha.....not me this time.

I don't know if I told you, but I've got a painting to do for the great grandson of a 55th FG P-38 pilot. I have to depict a feathered prop in my painting, so that gives me a good idea of how it should look.
