5-Blade or 7-Blade? The Better King Air Propeller Question
When a King Air owner begins evaluating a propeller upgrade, the conversation often starts with blade count.

The aircraft model, current propeller configuration, operating mission, passenger priorities, maintenance schedule, and other planned modifications can all influence the decision.
On-Wing Consulting helps King Air owners and operators organize those questions before moving forward with a BLR composite Whisper Propeller quotation and qualified installation path.
The right starting point is not simply βWhich one is better?β
It is:
βWhich option makes sense for this aircraft and this mission?β
