exceed 5% of the designed propeller weight. Reshaping of propeller blades is to be limited to minor corrections in pitch,
contour and/or rake.
4.
Extensive damage to the propeller or blades requiring build up of materials in excess of the quantities listed above, or
extensive reshaping and contouring of blades shall be performed as authorized by the Contracting Officer.
