I need 2, please. Willing to buy or steal (if yo put on the porch in a plain envelope). I just don't feel like messing with assembly of the ones from the MPM kit.
Thanks.

Would props from a DC-3 or C-47 work Lyle? The only way around this that I see as far as using one-piece props is to rob them from a kit.

I have a kit I can rob, but that really bothers me to have a kit missing a part. I will if I have too, but I'd rather not. I am planning on contacting Revell Germany in March (they are not taking any parts requests until early, mid-March) to see if they have any if I can't get two from a spares box.

What kit are you robbing them from? Edited........I see now. You're on the right track.

You'll want the skinny early blades, Lyle, perhaps leftovers from an early Academy B-17 which I think had several kinds of props in the kit.

I will dig through my box of parts tomorrow. I can almost be sure I have some B-17 spares in there someplace. Never thought of them as replacements but John is right they are early.

Well, duh....
I think I'm good....It dawned on me this morning (after jeaton's recommendation) that I have an Academy 1/72 B-17. It is the obligatory "Memphis Belle", but it has an extra set props that are not used. Thank you, tcoat and others that offered suggestions.

Ain't it great when you already have the solution to a model problem and didn't even know it?
