Latest Updates: FADEC Engine Certification, Mirage Cooling Kit & AmSafe airbags
On July 24, 2009 Teledyne Continental Motors received FAA Type Certification for the TSIOF-550-J FADEC engine that is used in our M-6 FADEC Malibu and Mirage STC project. This clears the way for our airframe Supplemental Type Certification project to be completed. We have nearly all of the production parts completed and installed on both our Malibu and Mirage test aircraft, including a much improved (rev.3) engine mount that is stronger and gives smoother powerplant vibration characteristics and a new engine instrumentation package for the transicoil equipped Mirage aircraft.

The M-1 Mirage Cooling Kit is now FAA APPROVED and ready to ship! If you wish your engine ran cooler, then this STC is for you. It is based on the same M1 cooling modification that has been a big success on the Continental powered Malibu and is one of the best values is aviation today. It lowers CHTs with no drag penalties and only takes about 3 hours to install. It works by increasing total air flow through the engine compartment and balancing the airflow by adding an additional baffle.
