Before her actual job as Maywar (KMYW) - Krakabloa Bandit (KKBB) commuter, Lucy was an actress. Not particulary lucky, she landed a few god gigs impersonating italian torpedo bombers in B-rated war movies. Her greatest success was in commercials for aerospace gadgets during the late '30s. "Runways seem to get shorter and shorter?
Applying the brakes makes you strike your precious prop?
Trouble finding an airport tug to push you back?
Fear no more!
With SIMPLEPLANES MANUALLY ADJUSTABLE PITCH PROPELLER, you may choose the pitch for you! Low pitch for take-off, high pitch for cruise, and reverse pitch for landing and backing up!
Fixed pitch propeller? A thing of the past!
SIMPLEPLANES MANUALLY ADJUSTABLE PITCH PROPELLER is the one for you! Ask your most thrusted air serviceman for more insights and relevant information.

[10 x speed] Warning: sustained high speed operation with low pitch will cause SIMPLEPLANES MANUALLY ADJUSTABLE PITCH PROPELLER to overspeed and damage the engine. Setting the pitch too high at low speed will cause SIMPLEPLANES MANUALLY OPERATED PITCH PROPELLER to undergo blade stall. Always check behind you before reversing your SIMPLEPLANES MANUALLY ADJUSTABLE PITCH PROPELLER.[/10xspeed]."

She was promised three SIMPLEPLANES MANUALLY ADJUSTABLE PITCH PROPELLERS, a lifetime of fuel and and fame as a payment.
Three days later, SIMPLEPLANES AUTOMATIC PITCH PROPELLER was launched on the market, making SIMPLEPLANES MANUALLY ADJUSTABLE PITCH PROPELLER less of an appeal.

She got to keep them, so good for her.

**Propeller pitch is controlled by VTOL; other controls are unchanged.
