Today, Hartzell propellers equip the entire prestigious Piper \u201cM Class\u201d with 4-blade aluminum on the turbine powered Meridian, and an ASC-II advanced structural composite 3-blade scimitar on the Mirage\/Matrix models. Hartzell\u2019s Top Prop program builds on this symbiotic relationship by offering the same proven structural composite propeller as an after-market upgrade for earlier Mirage aircraft. Hartzell also offers 3-blade conversions for most constant speed equipped Piper singles and light twins. Many of these conversions, like the recently approved Aztec and Seminole 2-blade conversion kits, feature the latest in blended airfoil, scimitar technology for the very best performance with added noise reduction.<\/p>\n<p>Most recently, in April 2017,\u00a0Hartzell Propeller\u2019s 83-inch composite Trailblazer propeller received a Supplemental Type Certificate (STC) for Super Cub PA-12 and PA-18 aircraft.<\/p>\n<p>And in May, Hartzell Propeller\u2019s new five-blade composite swept tip prop received FAA approval for installation on the Piper M600 turboprop aircraft. This new propeller was designed specifically for the Piper M600.<\/p>\n<p>Piper Aircraft has always offered some of the best aviation values in the sky. See what a new Top Prop performance propeller conversion can do to make it even better.
