I cannot say enough about the support from Velocity Aircraft, and the Swings in general. I don't think that there is another company in the world that values their customers as much as these people. I cannot say enough good about them!

I have both the bicambered fixed pitch prop from Felix propeller and the standered variable pitch prop. The Felix prop gives a 200' longer take off run and 7 min longer time to climb to 18,000'. It is cheaper by $10,000, much lighter by 20 lbs. and faster by a couple of knots at 8,000'. I'm sold on it.
