MT-Propeller Entwicklung GmbH has received validation of its EASA STCs from ANAC, Brazil's civil aviation authority, for the installation of the five-blade MTV-27 on the Beech King Air 90 series, Beech King Air 300/350 series and Beech King Air 200 series. All three installation are already supplemental type certified by EASA and FAA.

MT-Propeller President Gerd Muehlbauer announced that the installation of the five-blade MTV-27 propeller on the King Air series offers general performance improvements and there are no propeller speed restrictions while operating in low idle.

The MT-Propeller natural composite blades provide significant inside and outside noise reduction for a jet-like vibration and noise signature. They have no life limitation and are repairable in case of an FOD. They also provide best vibration damping characteristics for almost vibration free propeller operation and have bonded on nickel alloy leading edges for superior erosion protection of the blades.

All models comply with the strict German 2010 noise regulations, "Landeplatz Lärmschutz Verordnung", for unrestricted airport operations in Germany and other European countries.
