Dear Sir or Madam,
having announced further information in our last infomail we would
like to provide them now:
1. Series kick-off retrofit kits for Cessna 172 / First customer
aircraft shipped in march
2. Status of Piper PA 28 STC
We hope to provide you helpful information and we are pleased
about your interest.
Yours faithfully,
Thielert Aircraft Engines GmbH

1. SERIES KICK-OFF RETROFIT KITS FOR CESSNA 172 / FIRST CUSTOMER
AIRCRAFT SHIPPED IN MARCH
At present, we are producing our CENTURION 1.7 jet fuel aircraft
engines and the installation parts for the Cessna 172. The delivery
times for the Cessna 172 retrofit installation parts have been
postponed. The reason for this being quality and supply bottlenecks on
the part of our suppliers. We are currently providing our suppliers
with significant levels of support in the transition to series
production, which in turn has produced the knock-on effect that our
internal resources cannot be used for the development of further
retrofit kits. Due to the limited capacities, we shall not be
extending our range of certified retrofit kits until after the
completion of this Cessna 172 series kick-off. The first customer
aircraft successfully completed their ground roll tests and are due to
be shipped to their owners before the end of March.
* Retrofit-Kits for 172N, F172N, 172P, F172P
----------------------------------------------------------------------
2. STATUS OF PIPER PA 28 STC
The issuing of the supplemental type certification (STC) for the Piper
PA 28 has been postponed. We anticipate that the STC will be issued by
mid-April at AERO 2003 in Friedrichshafen, Germany. Regular deliveries
of the retrofit kit for the Piper PA 28 will be available in August
from our sales partners. By this point in time, we will have also
defined the retrofit kit for the PA 28-161 Cadet, meaning that two
types will be available from August.
