Feathering the prop at idle.....

Should go under YGTBSM, but true story...

Club Cessna 310, owner, and menance pilot, upon doing quick "feather check", notices oil pressure dropping off (normal), freaks, and feathers the engine, and shuts it down. Notices the same **CENSORED****CENSORED****CENSORED****CENSORED** thing on #2, feathers it, shutting it down. Shakes the heck out of the aircraft, that is for sure....

I'm driving on the ramp to wrench on my airplane, and see Ed the Mechanic, and goofball owner pushing the airplane down the taxiway with two feathered props......

priceless.

oops, didnt realize "large earthen/cement structure to block water flow" would result in "censored....censored....censored....censored...".

My post makes me look like quite the potty mouth. I swear all I did was point out Hoover Dam to the passengers....
