Offered On Backcountry Propellers For Foundation Members

Hartzell Propeller announced it has extended its $1,000 discount on new backcountry aircraft propellers for members of the Recreational Aviation Foundation (RAF) through the end of 2025.

This is the fifth consecutive year the company has made the offer available.

An additional attraction for the deal is that for each discounted prop sold, Hartzel contributes $250 to the RAF to support its mission of preserving and promoting backcountry aviation access.

JJ Frigge, President of Hartzell said, “We’re excited to continue offering these discounts and supporting the RAF’s work to preserve the adventure of backcountry aviation. This $1,000 discount paired with a $250 contribution for each propeller sold demonstrates our commitment to ensuring access to remote and recreational airstrips for aviators.”

John McKenna Jr., RAF Chairman added, “We’re truly grateful for Hartzell's sustained partnership with the RAF. This collaboration brings real benefits to our supporters and encourages new pilots to join our mission.”

The backcountry propellers eligible for the discount are:

• Voyager: A three-blade aluminum Scimitar propeller optimized for Cessna 180, 182, 185, and 206 aircraft, powered by certain Continental 470, 520, and 550 engines under a recent STC.
• Pathfinder: A three-blade Raptor carbon fiber composite propeller, available for CubCrafters XCub and Carbon Cub FX, as well as the Glasair Sportsman, American Legend, and a variety of experimental aircraft.
• Trailblazer: A versatile two- or three-blade carbon fiber composite propeller, compatible with various models from American Champion, American Legend, Aviat, AviPro, CubCrafters, Glasair, Maule, and numerous other experimental aircraft.

The RAF is a 501(c)(3) organization founded by a group of Montana pilots who were concerned about the closure of recreational airstrips and is dedicated to preserving, improving and creating public-use airstrips for recreational use across the U.S.
