To be considered eligible for installation on U.S. registered aircraft, each 
propeller imported into the United States must be accompanied by a certificate 
of airworthiness for export or certifying statement endorsed by the exporting 
cognizant civil airworthiness authority. Include the following language in the 
certifying statement: 
(1) This propeller conforms to its United States type design (Type Certificate 
Number P00040BO) and is in a condition for safe operation; and 
(2) This propeller has been subjected by the manufacturer to a final 
operational check and is in a proper state of airworthiness. Reference 14 CFR 
21.500, which provides for the airworthiness acceptance of engines or 
propellers manufactured outside the U.S. for which a U.S. type certificate has 
been issued. Additional guidance is contained in FAA Advisory Circular 21-23, 
Airworthiness Certification of Civil Aircraft, Engines, Propellers, and Related
