- McCauley Propeller Systems is an American aircraft propeller manufacturer, founded in Dayton, Ohio in 1938 by Ernest G. McCauley. At its peak, it was reportedly the world's largest aircraft propeller manufacturer, or at least the largest manufacturer of general aviation propellers. For most of its existence, McCauley was headquartered in or near Dayton. In the 21st century, its headquarters were moved to then-parent-company Textron Aviation's headquarters in Wichita, Kansas. Originally called the McCauley Aviation Corporation, it was promptly renamed the McCauley Steel Propeller Company when incorporated in 1939. Subsequently, it was renamed the McCauley Industrial Corporation, and, later the McCauley Industrial Division (or the McCauley Industrial Accessory Division) of Cessna Aircraft, who acquired McCauley in 1960. In 1992, Cessna was acquired by Textron Corporation, which subsequently absorbed Cessna into Textron Aviation. In September 1996, McCauley was renamed "McCauley Propeller Systems." (en)
