This specification covers the establishment of the minimum requirements for the design, testing, and quality assurance of fixed-pitch or ground adjustable propellers for light sport aircraft. The propeller may not have design features that have been shown to be hazardous or unreliable unless the suitability of each questionable design detail or part can be established by tests. Strength testing; stress measurement, fatigue strength, and fatigue analysis, endurance testing, and teardown inspection shall be performed to meet the requirements prescribed.
1.1 This specification covers the establishment of the minimum requirements for the design, testing, and quality assurance of propellers or propeller control systems (for example, governors), or both, for light sport aircraft. These propellers or control systems, or both, are used on light aircraft, and could be used with engines conforming to Practices F2339, F2538, or F2840.
1.2 This specification is intended for use by manufacturers of propellers for light sport aircraft.
1.3 This specification does not address the airframe installation requirements for propellers.
1.4 This standard does not purport to address all of the safety concerns, if any, associated with its use. It is the responsibility of the user of this standard to establish appropriate safety, health, and environmental practices and to determine the applicability of regulatory limitations prior to use.
1.5 This international standard was developed in accordance with internationally recognized principles on standardization established in the Decision on Principles for the Development of International Standards, Guides and Recommendations issued by the World Trade Organization Technical Barriers to Trade (TBT) Committee.
