MT-Propeller Entwicklung GmbH has received the EASA STC number 10043855 for the next generation 5-blade scimitar composite propeller MTV-27-1-E-C-F-R(G)/CFR210-58d on the MU-2B series with maximum 2000 engine rpm and MTV-27-1-E-C-F-R(G)/CFRL240-55d on the MU-2B series with maximum 1591 engine rpm.  The FAA STC is following. Advantages of the propeller installation include: - Best vibration damping characteristics for almost vibration free propeller operations - Bonded on nickel alloy for best erosion protection of the blades - Enhanced take-off distance by approx. 5 % (MTOW, SL, ISA conditions) - Enhanced climb performance by approx. 5 % (MTOW, SL, ISA conditions) - Cooler ITTs during engine start up, therefore less engine wear and reduced risk of hot start! - Significant inside and outside noise reductions by up to 8 dB(A) - Unbeatable aesthetic ramp appeal! - Lighter than the original propellers by 22 lbs (10 kg) The high technology natural composite blades have no life limitation and can even be repaired in case of a FOD. MT-Propeller is the world leading natural composite propeller manufacturer with 30 propeller models from 2-blade to 6-blade hydraulically controlled variable pitch propeller, for engines producing up to 5000hp, and 2-blade to 4-blade electrically controlled variable pitch propeller, for engines producing up to 350hp as well as two blade fixed pitch propellers.
