## Discrepancy

ABORTED TAKEOFF DURING TAKEOFF ROLL, AS THE PILOT ADVANCED THE POWER LEVER, THE ENGINE ACCELERATED AND WITH A TARGET PROPELLER SPEED OF 1700 RPM SET, IT WENT TO 1803 RPM AND THE SPEED COULD NOT BE CONTROLLED. THE T/O WAS ABORTED. TROUBLESHOOTING IS FOCUSING ON A FAULTY PROPELLER GOVERNOR.  RECOMMENDS THE SDR BE CLOSED ON THE BASIS OF THE FOLLOWING INFORMATION.
