Can anyone help me trace some information about a Sopwith Triplane I have just acquired a propellor from?! It's ID number is P2480.

Thanks!

Anne

the number is not the identification number. It is the pitch number for that particular propellor(Hence, the 'P' prefix). The number signifies the distance the propellor would move forward in a single rotation as if it were a screw and the blades were the threads. In this case, it would be 2,480 millemeters or 248 cm.
