REFLECTOR: MT Prop Damage

[Mark Magee]

Thanks to all who replied, I will attempt repairs on this myself. Worst case scenario I have to send it in for a new leading edge if it doesn't repair well.
JB weld is miraculous...
Thanks

He told me that as long as the SS leading edge hadn't broken (no holes or cracks), that I should be OK - repair with JB Weld and watch carefully.  That was at least 200 hours ago... I keep a close eye on it, but I haven't seen any issues.  My damage didn't appear quite as bad, but I'd sure try the JB weld route first.  Sorry, no picture handy...
