Advantages of the New Propeller System
The new propeller system offers several advantages, including superior vibration damping characteristics, enhanced take-off and climb performance, and increased cruise speed by approximately 4 to 5 knots at 1800 RPM. It is lighter than the original propellers by about 60 lbs, features unlimited blade life, and provides better ground clearance to reduce foreign object damage (FOD). Additionally, it significantly reduces noise levels, with cabin noise decreased by 4 to 6 dB(A) and overall noise below 80 dB(A) as per ICAO standards.
STC Kit Contents
The STC kit includes two 4-blade reversing and full feathering constant speed propellers (MTV-16-1-E-C-F-R(P)/CFR230-37b), two full composite spinners, and several documentation pieces: an Airplane Flight Manual Supplement (Doc. No. E-1670), Installation Instructions (Doc. No. E-1671), Instructions for Continued Airworthiness (Doc. No. E-1672), and an Operation and Installation Manual (ATA 61-01-24).
Propeller Specifications
The propeller specifications detail the full designation as MTV-16-1-E-C-F-R(P)/CFR230-37b, with a milled single-piece aluminum hub and scimitar blade design made from lightweight natural composite. Each propeller and spinner weighs 113 lbs, with a maximum diameter of 90.6 inches and a minimum diameter of 89.8 inches. The time between overhauls (TBO) is according to the latest service bulletin.
