Trinity Aviation Group Acquires STC to Install Pratt & Whiney PT6C-67D Engine

Trinity Aviation Group has acquired the STC to install the new, in production Pratt & Whiney PT6C-67D engine into the UH-1H (Huey) platform. Calling the upgrade, the HUEY TALON, it brings a new life to the Huey and is fundamentally a new aircraft.

The Trinity Aviation Group is focused on upgrading and modernizing the Bell Medium legacy aircraft.

 “We feel these amazing aircraft are here to stay, they are well known, forgiving, maintenance friendly and with the proper TLC will keep on providing us with a cost-effective workhorse for many years to come.” States Warren Malmberg general manager of Trinity Aviation Group, “The heart of any aircraft is its powerplant and if we want to increase the longevity of these remarkable workhorses, the 1960’s era T53 engines must be upgraded to modern standards.”

In order to take the first major step to truly modernize these aircraft Trinity Aviation Group invested in acquiring the STC.

The PT6C-67 series engine is utilized in many other aircraft and has a proven history of exceptional reliability, fuel economy, and low maintenance requirements. Trinity Aviation Group manufactures the new fairings, cowlings, and kitting hardware included in the upgrade which lays the foundation for a truly modernized Huey.
