  Mr. DAVIDSON. Mr. Speaker, it is with great pride that I recognize 
and celebrate the 100th anniversary of Hartzell Propeller. Hartzell 
Propeller has been a tremendous leader in aviation engineering since 
its founding in 1917 and it represents the best of American innovation 
and entrepreneurship. Robert Hartzell founded the company when Orville 
Wright suggested he use his wood processing plant to manufacture 
propellers for him and his brother. Since then, the company has 
developed composite and aluminum propellers for the general aviation 
market that have broken numerous records and received many awards.
  Hartzell Propeller has provided propellers in both world wars and 
successfully transitioned into the general aviation market because of 
its commitment to build the highest quality propellers. The phrase 
``Built on Honor'' is placed on the company's propellers to reflect 
their dedication to this mission. Hartzell Propeller has had a profound 
impact on the history of American aviation and on its local community 
in Piqua, Ohio and it will continue to do so for years to come. I ask 
that my colleagues in the United States House of Representatives join 
me in celebrating the 100th anniversary of Hartzell Propeller.
