Aircraft Propeller Nicks
Aircraft Propeller Nicks
(OP)
How come when you walk up to the front of an airplane, the front of the propeller is nice and clean? It has almost no bugs or nicks or dings. But the back side, the side you look at from the cockpit, usually painted black, has all sorts of nicks and dings in the paint. What gives?
Can someone explain this in layman terms?

They only change direction significantly after the blade has hit them.
