I was taught that you don’t want to file back and forward Just forward

[@bigchungus1848]

File forward, and use the sandpaper forward and back.

So what effect does this have to the weight & balance of the blade in relation to the others/other blade after removing this perfection??? is method FAA approved???

[@halhobenshield5931]

It will effect the balance of the propeller blades.
If it’s a small repair it’s not a big deal. the one I did here is borderline.
The correct thing to do would be to do a dynamic balance of the propeller following this type of repair. If it is bad enough you may consider taking some material off of the other blades.

@@halhobenshield5931 I was going to ask the same question ,,,,also does it change the Dynamic balance of the Propeller too ??

Here is a link to the FAA instructions for field repairs

[@halhobenshield5931]

It is advisable to dynamically balance propellers after maintenance

[@dalegarcia5522]

I failed this project in my oral and practical, are there any extra steps outside what is show on this video that you would do when performing for a DME. For example, measuring the damage and planning out the width of the repair.
