Feathering Ken Mitchell C-130 panel

Featured Replies

In Ken Mitchell C-130 panel (www.flightsim.com > FS2004 Panels > C-130) when you go to feather the props, the engines fuel switches cut off and I am forced to restart engines all the time. Is this supposed to happen? If so, then how do I feather during flight descent? I even tried the assignment (Propeller (feather)).Is this supposed to happen on C-130 aircraft? I'm using one from RNZAF website. Search on google "New Zealand Airforce" > downloads etc etc etcPlease reply. Does this happen on the Captain Sim C-130?

Hello,

then how do I feather during flight descent
In first place .. why do you feather the propellers when you descent ? (no pitch at all...)Seem's to me it's used in emergency .. when engine (s) must be stopped in flight (for reduce drag)Regards.bye.gifGus.

Oh, so you don't have to feather during descents? I see. So i only ever feather when engines are out affirm? But can't you anyways feather anytime during the flight? The panel doesn't let me do it. For example, what if i wanted to do a 0% throttle descent? I think the Flight1 ATR can do feathering anytime and so can Captain Sim C-130 am i correct? How do I do it with this a/c...Do I only feather in emergency when all engines fail? Is this what feathering is for, not inflight...only in emergencies affirm?
