Oh for a cockpit voice recorder on that last one.

I don't think there was any propeller contact. I think that what you see is dust being picked up by the tip about 1" from the ground. If the prop had struck there would have been splinters flying from what appears to be a wooden prop

Seems to be a rubbing sound...might have just rubbed very slightly...whatever the fact, it's closer than you'd ever want to be

Don't tundra tyres look daft...

I think on the last one there was definite prop contact, it's the way the aircraft ends up parked on its nose that does it for me.

Oh thank you Skippy Bing . I thought the propeller was always shaped like that! Incidentally I did manage to do that once !
