Kinda nasty, huh?

Not really.. Looks like a giant mega scab with an assload of necrotic tissue.. looks like it hurts though.

Thought it was some kind of mold at first.

Now imagine getting clocked in the head with an aluminum prop on a full powerstroke from a 360ci motor.. Some poor schmuck got nicknamed Harry potter for it.

Not to mention the 'incident' and those like it were thereby dubbed 'harry pottering' <_<

Well, considering that its a hole in some guy's calf, its kinda gross. And cool.

And getting hit in the head by a prop would suck ass. Just saying.

Oh it did.. cracked his skull something fierce. They were pulling it properly (by the prop shanks) and he tripped, blade kicked over and with the mags ON it actually fired once due to residual fuel in the injectors. From what I heard just a little brain swelling was the worst. The other 3 like aircraft were grounded..

Found out the scavenge system on that engine was bad, left fuel in there when it wasn't supposed to be. Its also why you don't leave the keys to an airplane in the ignition when you're pulling it buy a giant metal swingy thing.

My dad's been building this crazy-big model RC plane ever since he retired and was trying to get the engine to turn over one day...didn't hold it down, engine started up suddenly, the torque spun the nose of the plane right into his arm...chopped him up pretty badly.
