I recently had my front prop overhauled by H&S as well. Haven't flown it yet but a generally good experience.

The issue with threaded props is that once you pull them apart, you can't put the ferrules back in the same place. So you usually have to find used ones from another prop that was dismantled similarly. And that's getting very difficult to do. H&S had a hell of a time, delaying the overhaul by a few months. If you're interested, I might sell the pair of mine as I've been looking for an excuse to spend otherwise perfectly good money on 3-blade composite props. My marriage is apparently going too well, so...

In Canada for private ops, we are required to overhaul every 10 years of calendar time, regardless of airtime or manufacturer's TBO.

I had my front prop done last winter by BL Aviation outside of Montreal. Great service, final invoice was as quoted.

Rear prop is due next year - will likely go with BL again.

Okay, I will bite.

How much for a pair of spare ready-to-re-use ferrules?
