Cool During training...

several years ago at altitude we shut the front engine down and feathered it... When we tried to move the prop control forward it would not move. After landing and some investigating, we could see where the rod comes thru the baffling, it had got hung up. The bracket that supported the baffling at the center of it had broken and allowed the baffle to shift and prevented the rod from moving forward.... Yes, had (4) turbines fail over the years, (2) catastrofic, a roll back and a fuel pump shaft failure.... Guy, old72driver....
