4-Blade MT Composite Propeller Receives STC Approval

Advanced Composite MT Propellers Now Available For Beech Baron

The FAA has granted STC approval for the installation of the Flight Resource 4-blade MT composite propellers to the Beech Baron. In a Saturday news release, the company said this upgrade provides 40 pounds of weight savings, turbine like smoothness, reduced noise (inside and out), and improvements in climb and cruise performance.

"I am very pleased to make this announcement just in time for EAA's AirVenture," said John Nielsen, senior partner for Flight Resources. "We have been approached, a number of times, from Baron owners to get the STC for their type aircraft. It is a great prop, with great advantages. We look forward to working with our new customers."

The technologically advanced MT composite propeller is a lightweight alternative to conventional forged aluminum props. The blades incorporate a stainless steel leading edge on high-thrust, precision CNC milled blades with no life limits. Current available options include electric or fluid de-ice and MT's patented HiGlo Kevlar spinner.
