Mighty Midget Lycoming T55 Completes 50-Hour Test Milestone

Lycoming announces 50-hour preliminary flight rating for the T55 turboprop engine, the lightest American aircraft engine to reach 1650 plus equivalent shaft horsepower. The T55-L-1 weighs 95 pounds and delivers 1676 ESHP in military testing, with the Army also pursuing the T55-L-3 helicopter version rated at 1850 shaft horsepower. Potential twin-engine turboprop installations could enable higher takeoff power while offering cruising economy and redundancy. Lycoming’s T65 and T53 programs are noted, with a recent T53 order exceeding $10 million marking a major gas turbine helicopter contract.
