09 FEATHERING
Battery power and engine oil in the feathering sump are necessary to enable the propeller
to feather completely.
If the propeller will not feather then set it at minimum RPM where it will windmill. The
severe drag in this situation makes a landing inevitable. The aircraft will not stay airborne
even with Take-Off power in this condition.
