On the feathering issue: am aware of gates. In attempt to feather on ground, run up engine/warm up, then smartly pull back throttle and prop control being sure to lift up and over gate. No joy on seeing prop in feather position after engine stops. It's been a while but pretty sure manual says prop feather supposed to happen like that. Watching video earlier in this thread, looks like would be assured steady decent on one engine if am unable to feather a prop, but hope of maintaining altitude if prop would feather.
