Beech 99/100 series with five-blade QFJ MT-Propeller MTV-27 certified by TCCA Canada

MT-Propeller Entwicklung GmbH has received acceptance of EASA STC 10064889 for the MTV-27-1-E-C-F-R(G)/CFR210-58( ) Quiet Fan Jet composite propeller on the Beech 99/100 series by TCCA Canada. The FAA STC is in progress.

MT-Propeller vice president Martin Albrecht says that the installation of the five-blade MTV-27 propellers on the Beech 99/100 series feature the following advantages:

- Take-off improvement by 10%

- No propeller speed restrictions on ground while operating in low idle

- Lower ITTs during start-up for less engine wear

- Significant cabin noise [up to 10 dB(A)] and vibration reduction

- Unbeatable aesthetic ramp appeal

- Comply with the strict German 2010 Landeplatz Lärmschutz Verordnung noise regulations for unrestricted airport operations in Germany and other European countries.

Due to its smaller diameter the MT-Propeller for the Beech 99/100 series has more ground clearance for less blade tip erosion and FODs.

The MT-Propeller natural composite blades provide significant inside and outside noise reduction. 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.

MT-Propeller is the world leading natural composite propeller manufacturer with 30 propeller models from two-blade to seven-blade hydraulically controlled variable pitch propellers for engines producing up to 5,000hp, and two-blade to four-blade electrically controlled variable pitch propellers for engines producing up to 350hp as well as two blade fixed pitch propellers.

The high performance, light weight and durable MT-Propellers can be used on aircraft with piston engines and propeller turbines, as well as on airships, wind tunnels or hovercraft. MT-Propellers can be developed for nearly every aircraft type from motor gliders to regional airliners.

Fulfilling the highest certifications requirements, they are also supplemental type certified on Part 25 aircraft.

MT-Propeller is the holder of over 220 STCs worldwide and the OEM supplier for more than 90% of the European aircraft industry as well as 30% of the US aircraft industry. More than 25,000 propeller systems with over 80,000 blades are in service.

150 million fleet hours have been performed on MT-Propellers since the first MT-Propeller was shipped 38 years ago. With the longest industry TBO of 4,500 hours or six years for the five-bladed turbo propellor MT-Propeller has proven its reliability over years.
