I don't find it
surprising that the props feathered in this situation, and would

adequate information about their flight systems in the POH to inform
the pilot of this possibility.


OK Neil.

You find it in the article.

My Deutsch is far too rusty to find it in the article. ;-)

POH - Under - abnormal operating procedures - 4B.7 STARTING ENGINE
WITH EXTERNAL POWER - #13 Opposite engine ..... START WITH NORMAL
PROCEDURE

That is it.

That's fine for starting the engines, but that isn't the only issue, is
it?

Is there nothing in the POH about the electrically powered items (landing
gear, FADEC, etc.)? If there is, it shouldn't require an EE degree to
realize that one should be concerned about the condition of the batteries,
charging, etc. if one has to "jump start" the engine, or to realize that
something critical is in need of attention.

Maybe I'm just an overly cautious type. ;-)
