What are the three types of propeller installation in aircraft?

1. Tractor: Propeller is mounted in front of the engine, and the engine produces thrust by pushing air backward over the propeller blades.

2. Pusher: Propeller is mounted behind the engine, and the engine produces thrust by pulling air forward over the propeller blades.

3. Tandem: Consists of two propellers mounted coaxially (one in front of the other) and rotating in the opposite directions.
