Propeller tip
propeller tip the extreme end of a propeller blade. The tip, capable of rotating at speeds approaching the speed of sound (1,100 feet or about 300 meters per second), can become nicked and scratched, which weakens the blade. Due to the tremendous wind forces pushing against it, a damaged, weakened propeller blade can break off, causing enough imbalance to tear the entire engine from the aircraft, resulting in its crash.
What would be the best translation into Spanish for 'propeller tip'? "puntas de las hélices"? "palas de las hélices"? I take any tip on this...
