Lookin' good Cool

"Oh! I have slipped the surly bonds of Earth and danced the skies on laughter silvered wings. Sunward I've climbed and joined the tumbling mirth of sun split clouds.....and done a hundred things you have never dreamed of.....wheeled and soared and swung high in the sunlit silence. Hovering there, I've chased the shouting wind along and flung my eager craft through footless halls of air.

Up, up the long, delerious, burning blue I've topped the wind swept heights with easy grace where never Lark, nor even Eagle flew. While with silent lifting of mind I've trod the high untrespassed sanctity of space, put out my hand and touched the face of god"

Actually, those props are feathered, the model just has it backwards. When the prop lever is full forward on the ISDT model, they look feathered. Someone messed up on the animations D:

The King Air is powered by PT-6 turboprops, which are free-turbine engines, unlike the Garrett/Allied-Signal TPE331, which is geared. The props, which are installed without low-pitch stops on the PT-6, go to feather when oil-pressure to the regulator is lost upon engine shutdown. Never flew 'em, never maintained 'em. But I did have a question like that on my A&P oral some years ago. That was my answer, as I recall, and I think the examiner was okay with that.
