75 flying PC-12 enjoy MT's Silent 7 propeller
The installation of The Silent 7 MT-Propeller on the Pilatus PC-12 sets new limits for certain applications, exceeding the performance of 5-blade propellers.
The world's first 7-blade propeller is now installed on 75 Pilatus PC-12 aircraft in Europe and the USA.
The advantages of The Silent 7
- certified takeoff performance improvement by 20%, improved climb and cruise
- a very low noise level both in the cabin and outdoors , like jet-like noise
- a very smooth operation
The Pilatus PC-12 STC with The Silent 7 MT-Propeller meets the highest noise regulations in European countries for unrestricted airport operations.
In April 2023, the STC for the Pilatus PC-12 combined with the 7-blade MTV-47 propeller was again updated to reflect the improvement in certified performance in the AFMS, reducing the required take-off length by approximately 20% compared to the original certified data. Already converted PC-12 aircraft can receive the latest certified performance range of MT propellers.
