Two new FAA STCs for props on Piper’s PA-60 and Cessna’s 210
MT Propeller
Atting, November 2021 - MT-Propeller Entwicklung GmbH has received the FAA STC No. SA04452NY for the scimitar 4-blade composite propeller MTV-14-B-C-F/CF(L)188-30g on the Aerostar PA-60-600, -601, -601P, -602P, PA-60-700P powered by the engines Lycoming IO-540-A- and IO-540-S-series (modified according to FAA STC SE1657NM) and (L)TIO-540-U-series.
This installation is already certified by EASA STC 10062000.
The FAA has granted German prop manufacturer MT Propeller two new STC’s for Cessna’s 210 and Piper’s PA-60 Aerostar.
MT-Propeller Vice President Martin Albrecht says, that the installation features the following advantages:
- Shorter take-off distance
- Enhanced climb by approx. 3% to 5% (SL, ISA conditions)
- Cruise performance increased by approx. 3 to 5 kts (MTOW, ISA conditions)
- Approx. 40 lbs less weight than the original propellers
- No airframe resonance with low engine rpm
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 stainless steel leading edges for best erosion protection of the blades.

In a further context, MT-Propeller Entwicklung GmbH has also received the FAA STC No. SA00925WI for the next generation 4-blade scimitar composite propeller MTV-14-D/195-30b on the Cessna P210N, P210R, T210M, T210N, T210R powered by the Engines TCM TSIO-520-P, -R, -CE, -AF.
The installation is also certified by EASA STC No.10038720.
MT-Propeller Vice President Martin Albrecht says, that the installation feature the following advantages:
- 5% better climb
- 3 to 5kts faster cruise
- best vibration damping characteristics for almost vibration free propeller operation
- bonded on nickel alloy leading edges for superior erosion protection of the blades
- the scimatar blades have an unbeatable esthetic ramp appeal
- can be operated in Switzerland in the lowest noise category
- max rpm reduction to 2500.
Due to the smaller diameter the MT-Propeller for the Cessna ()210() Series has more ground clearance for less blade tip erosion and FODs.
The long time proven 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.
About MT-Propeller
MT-Propeller is the world leading natural composite propeller manufacturer with 30 certified propeller models from 2-blade to 7-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.
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 and hovercraft. MT-Propellers can be developed for nearly every aircraft type from motor gliders to regional airliners.
Fulfilling the highest certification requirements they are also supplemental type certified on Part 25 aircraft.
MT-Propeller is holder of over 220 STCs worldwide and OEM supplier for more than 90% of the European Aircraft Industry as well as 30% of the US Aircraft Industry. More than 26,000 propeller systems with more than 87,000 blades are in service. 180 Million fleet hours where already performed on MT-Propellers. With the longest industry TBO of 4500 hours or 6 years for the 5-bladed turbo prop MT-Propeller has proven the reliability over years.
A factory certified network of 62 service centers, provides best service and maintenance all over the world.
