Overview

This document is an Airplane Flight Manual Supplement (AFMS) for the Diamond DA20-C1, specifically addressing the installation and performance data for the MT 175 R 150 - 2Ca propeller. It is intended for pilots and maintenance personnel who require detailed information on the propeller's specifications, limitations, and performance characteristics. The AFMS serves as a supplementary guide to the basic Airplane Flight Manual, ensuring that operators have the necessary data to safely and effectively operate the aircraft with the specified propeller. Key sections include limitations, performance data, and emergency procedures, with a focus on ensuring compliance with operational standards.

  • Static RPM at full throttle: 2000 to 2200 RPM
  • Propeller diameter: 175 cm (68.9 in)
  • Maximum propeller speed: 2800 RPM
  • True airspeed at 6000 ft density altitude: 122 knots
  • Performance data is not TCCA approved

General Information

This section outlines that the AFMS must be carried in the airplane and is applicable alongside the basic Airplane Flight Manual. It also provides references to further information regarding the MT 175 R 150 - 2Ca propeller.

Limitations

The limitations section specifies that there are no changes to engine limits or tachometer readings. The static RPM at full throttle is between 2000 to 2200 RPM, with a propeller diameter of 175 cm (68.9 in) and a pitch of 150 cm (59.1 in) at a specific station.

Performance Data

Performance data includes noise measurements and cruise performance metrics. The maximum propeller speed is set at 2800 RPM, and the document provides a density altitude chart and examples of performance at various altitudes and temperatures.

Weight and Balance

This section advises users to refer to the latest revised empty weight and center of gravity data for accurate loading instructions.

Description of the Airplane and Its Systems

The propeller is described as a 2-blade wood composite fixed pitch propeller, with notes on operational requirements regarding the spinner.

Safety notes

  • Performance data may vary based on aircraft condition and operator technique.
