November 13, 2015 — Dayton, Ohio — Stevens Aviation is pleased to announce it has secured its first customer order for installation of the new Raisbeck Swept Blade Turbofan Propeller for the King Air 350, which will be performed at the Dayton, Ohio location. With Supplemental Type Certificate approval expected by year end, this will be the first post-STC installation completed worldwide.

Denison Aviation, Indianapolis, Ind., a long-time Stevens King Air customer, chose Stevens for their expertise in King Air modifications, as well as being one of the first Raisbeck Engineering Authorized Dealer & Installation Centers dating back to the early 1980’s. Denison was confident choosing Raisbeck Engineering due to their reputation, long-term presence in the industry and dedication to the King Air market.

The new Raisbeck 105” diameter Swept Blade design allows for a quieter cabin, impressive ramp presence and improved performance. Proving once again that no one knows King Airs and aerodynamic improvements like Raisbeck, and no one is more trusted in King Air modifications than Stevens Aviation.

Stevens is contacting King Air owners now throughout the country in an effort to fill installation slots for 2016 at all three of its locations. To give potential customers a closer look at the Raisbeck Swept Blade Propeller, Stevens will have one on display along with Raisbeck representatives scheduled at its booth #N1321 at the upcoming NBAA national convention in Las Vegas. Special incentives will be offered at the show for this new propeller at the Stevens booth.
