Stopped by the tru trak booth at osh...they've got install kits certified for 172 and 177. Said a piper is next and all about potential demand. Visit their website and show 337 interest...nothing required or committment made...just express interest. Speak up,make us heard.....

I talk to trio avionics they said they approval for a 172 & 182 with
177 before along and PA 28. They were making a list for the next
ones. I guess that would be the ones with the most interest?

I don't see why all of us can't express intetest via both mfg websites...strength in numbers, so don't be passive, vote early and often.

Then we have options.

Key is that folks express an interest, so our model is not passed by...

yep, here at SNF...today is last day at show, then leave Lakeland area tomorrow

almost did impules buy on MT props, but their STC doesn't cover the T337C. They said they think they can cover with expanded STC in next month or so, and asked me to buy then they would refund if they can't cover me. My impulse to buy wasn't that strong I told them to get the coverage first, then I would get out the credit card. On the positive side, they USA guys are in Deland and will put the props on at no charge when you buy from them.

If you can make it happen you won't be disappointed in the performance, smoothness and response. I have had the MT's for 15 years now, I would do it again. I just purchased a 3 blade for the Van's RV-8A that I am building. There was no question in my mind what prop I wanted on the 8. BUT........this prop has the scimitar blades. The blended airfoil type scimitar blade design is the newest design. Although it has been around for a while now there is none on Skymaster's. I think you could get a field approval and the help of Flight Resource in Wisconsin. I know that John that just bought a Skymaster in Canada has already ordered his MT's but decided the extra money for the scimitar design was out of his budget. The 3 blades have such a great static appearance but the scimitar blade would just expand that appearance 10 times over. Quieter, more efficient design and killer looks. Somebody needs to do it and you are going to have a great performer. Let's see it Robert......I really like talking to John at flight resource.

Getting very close. Looking at the calendar, I should see mine within the next two weeks.

Yes/no. I actually was prepared to step up for the scimitar blades but field approvals are USA only. No bueno with Transport Canada.

Been really happy with http://www.flight-resource.com/ and how they've worked with me. You might want to ask them also.
