Anyone solve the mystery?? Why, oh why did the JUNKERS G.38 4-engined prototype test-fly with a four-bladed propeller, inboard and a two-bladed propeller, outboard on each wing? All four driving engines were identical. Might this have caused any power imbalance/handling or thrust deficit issues? What was the direction of propeller rotation? Was anything useful learnt from this?
It - and its sibling - were all ultimately equipped with four-bladed propellers on all four engines. "Strange, eh?"
