Can someone write a new verse for the old Johnny Cash song One Piece At A Time? Remember that song?

I can just see it now. One jet engine, one bugsmasher prop engine, mag wheels from a 77 Oldsmomble Cutlass.....

...He'd get it one blade at a time
And it wouldn't cost him a dime
You'll know it's him when he flys through your town
He's gonna fly around in style
He's gonna drive everybody wild
'Cause he'll have the only flying windmill around...

So you can change the pitch of the blade in flight depending on the barometric pressure and bomb load temperature over the target zone.
