The airplane is back in service after some re-seal work on the propeller hub. Leading up to the repair a pattern of oil started to appear on the propeller extending away from the hub after each flight. After further investigation the o-rings inside the propeller hub had worn flat and were no longer capable of containing the lubricating oil stored inside. With the repair complete, I was able to make a short scenic flight to verify that the oil leak has indeed stopped.
