New Cessna composite propeller pulls towards FAA certification

摘要

Cessna Aircraft's two-blade, fixed-pitch composite propeller for the 162 Skycatcher light sport aircraft has been approved by the American Society for Testing and Materials.rnConsisting of a continuous lightweight fibre, the 1L100 pro-rnpeller equips Teledyne Continental Motors' 0-200D engine. Testing continues as Cessna's McCauley propeller systems division works to gain US Federal Aviation Administration certification (CFR part 35) for the propeller.
