CERTIFICATION BASIS: The U.S. certification basis determined under Section 21.29 of the FAR and 
Bilateral Airworthiness Agreement between the United States and the Federal 
Republic of Germany is FAR 35, effective February 1, 1965, Amendments 35-1 to 
35-7, inclusive. 
European Aviation Safety Agency (EASA) type certificated this propeller under 
type certificate EASA P.013. The FAA validated this product under U.S. Type 
Certificate Number P25NE. Effective September 28, 2003, the European Aviation 
Safety Agency (EASA) began oversight of this product on behalf of the Federal 
Republic of Germany. 
TC (IMPORT) NO. P25NE 
TC APPLICATION DATE: August 17, 1990 
TC ISSUED August 13, 1992, revised December 10, 1999, revised April 26, 2004 
IMPORT REQUIREMENTS: To be considered eligible for installation on U.S. registered aircraft, each propeller 
to be exported to the United States shall be accompanied by a certificate of 
airworthiness for export or certifying statement endorsed by the exporting 
cognizant civil airworthiness authority which contains the following language: 
(1) This propeller conforms to its United States type design (Type Certificate 
Number P25NE) and is in a condition for safe operation. 
(2) This propeller has been subjected by the manufacturer to a final 
operational check and is in a proper state of airworthiness. Reference FAR 
Section 21.500 which provides for the airworthiness acceptance of aircraft 
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 Products, Imported into the United States.

NOTE 3: Pitch Control: Pitch control is accomplished by a standard governor or by the MT-Propeller Hydraulic Propeller 
Governor Installation, P-480-( ) or P-9( )( )-( ) for the reversing option -R(M). 
Applicable standard governors are published in the FAA-approved list MT-Propeller Service Bulletin No. 14( ). 
The P-480-( ) or P-9( )( )-( ) is a single acting pump governor, but dual pressure system design enables the 
hydraulically variable pitch MT-propellers to operate with reverse capability. P-480-( ) or P-9( )( )-( ) governors 
also incorporate feathering capability. 
Time Between Overhauls (TBO) for P-480-( ) or P-9( )( )-( ) governor is published in the MT-Propeller Service 
Bulletin No.1( ). 
NOTE 4: (a) Feathering: 
.
