AFAC Mexico STC for Cessna 206 Mark II with 5-Blade MT-Propeller MTV-5
MT-Propeller Entwicklung GmbH has received the STC No. IA-719/2020 from AFAC Mexico for the installation of the Quiet Fan Jet composite propeller MTV-5-1-D-C-F-R(A)/CFR210-56 on the Cessna 206 Mark II.
The installation is already certified by EASA and FAA.
MT-Propeller Vice President Martin Albrecht says, that the installation features the following advantages:
- No engine modifications
- Ground roll & takeoff distance over 50 ft obstacle is reduced by approx. 90 m (295 ft)
- Climb performance slightly improved
- Very smooth cruising - no speed penalty
- Approx. 6 kg (13 lbs) less weight than the original 3-blade metal propeller
- More ground clearance for less FODs
- Complies with strict German noise regulations 2010
The MT-Propeller natural composite blades provide significant inside and outside noise reduction. They have no life limitation and are repairable in case of a 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.
