acccident caused from similar actions.</SPAN></DIV>
<DIV><SPAN class=300393819-08082006>I routinley held the plane with my right
hand , over the top of the prop, and reached around with my left hand to unplug
the nystart( oops glow-igniter).</SPAN></DIV>
<DIV><SPAN class=300393819-08082006>Once I allowed my elbow to droop causing my
forearm to come into contact with the prop.</SPAN></DIV>

<DIV><SPAN class=300393819-08082006>The funny part is I heard the noise and
thought "oh shoot I just got something into the prop." Then when I saw the blood
I realized it was ME that I got into the prop. I was extremely fortunate the
motor was idling and I had only a laceration that required 8 stitches. No
permament damage but I have a 3 inch scar to show for it.</SPAN></DIV>

<DIV><SPAN class=300393819-08082006>I now use a remote glow attachment and move
behind the plane to remove it.</SPAN></DIV>

<DIV><FONT size=3>Dennis did what you should never do, reach from the front of
the plane, over the prop arc ( so he thought ) to check the switch on the side
of the fuse. Prop caught his arm a few inches below the elbow joint on
the top of his arm. Engine was running at nearly wide open throttle, he
is very lucky the damage wasn't worse. I see it all the time and the
same folks are quick to point out all the scars they have from props.
The moment the engine is running you should get behind the prop, period.
