Significantly reduce noise inside and outside your aircraft while increasing the performance of your PC-12. More ground clearance for fewer FODs. Easy field installation with no engine modifications necessary, FAA Certified, and unlimited blade life.
The Silent 7 is the world’s first 7-bladed prop for general aviation and defines a new level of comfort and performance never experienced on any turboprop aircraft before.
The world’s first 7-bladed Unducted Prop FAN MT-Propeller is now supplemental type certified on the Pilatus PC-12 powered by a Pratt & Whitney PT6A-67B or PT6A-67P propeller turbine. (PT6A-67P Engine Installation according to EASA STC 10065179 only applicable in EASA region).
When starting to develop the world’s first 7-bladed propeller for general aviation in 2016, MT-Propeller had the same vision as in the year 1999 when we came up with the first 5-bladed prop for turboprops. The 5-bladed prop became an industrial standard with more than 2500 propellers sold for various kinds of turboprops, and it is still an ongoing success story. The 7-bladed propeller is pushing the new limits for specific applications to go beyond the achievement of the 5-bladed propellers.
Due to the smaller diameter, the 7-bladed MT-Propeller for the Pilatus PC-12 has more ground clearance for less blade tip erosion and FODs.
