Replace the original reciprocating engines with Pratt & Whitney of Canada PT6A-135 or PT6A-112 turbopropeller engines and related Changes, all in accordance with Riley Aircraft Manufacturing Inc. Drawing List CPDL-1, Revision K, dated February 1, 1996, or later FAA approved revision. If the PT6A-135 engine is installed, the Riley Aircraft Corporation Airplane Flight Manual (AFM) dated August 17, 1982, or later FAA approved revision is a required part of this installation. If the PT6A-112 engine is installed, the Riley Aircraft Corporation Airplane Flight Manual (AFM) No. 1723 dated March 22, 1996, or later FAA approved revision is a required part of this installation.
This approval should not be granted to other aircraft of this model on which other previously approved modifications are incorporated unless it is determined that the relationship between this change and any of those other previously approved modifications will introduce no adverse effect upon the airworthiness of this aircraft. This determination should include consideration of significant changes in weight distribution such as an increase in the fixed disposable weight in the fuselage. This approval does not allow the installation of one PT6A-135 and one PT6A-112 engine in a given aircraft. A copy of this certificate and the appropriate AFM must be maintained as part of the permanent records for the modified aircraft. If the holder agrees to permit another person to use this certificate to alter the product, the holder shall give the other person written evidence of that permission.
