Early WWI fighters were sometimes equipped with steel plates on the back of prop blades to keep the machine guns from cutting the blades in two. Then someone developed a disconnecter to keep the guns from firing while a blade would pass in front. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then someone developed a disconnecter to keep the guns from firing while a blade would pass in front. Roland Garros put the deflectors on a Morane-Salnier in 1915, IIRC. Then some Dutch Fokker figured out the workable interruptor gear. Edited January 13, 2021 by gwalchmai 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
