PIQUA, KS, UNITED STATES, December 29, 2025 /EINPresswire.com/ -- Hartzell Propeller, a Signia Aerospace company, is bringing back its popular $1,000 discount on backcountry propellers for Recreational Aviation Foundation (RAF) members, and it’s here to stay through 2026.

Now in its sixth year, the offer includes a generous $250 donation to the RAF for each backcountry propeller sold, fueling the foundation’s mission to preserve backcountry airstrips for future generations.

“We are so very proud to continue our support for the RAF and backcountry flying,” said JJ Frigge, President Hartzell Propeller. “This relationship isn’t just about saving money, it’s also about keeping backcountry flying alive for everyone who loves aviation adventures.”

RAF Chairman John McKenna Jr. echoed the sentiment: “Hartzell Propeller’s ongoing commitment directly benefits pilots and helps protect the airstrips that make backcountry flying possible. This is a win for the entire aviation community.”
