Windmilling and electrical power
If a prop is feathered and an engine is shut down, will the engine
windmill at all? I assume that a windmilling prop still turns the engine (i.e., no clutch disconnects it from the engine, at least on a piston powerplant). If so, can windmilling drive an alternator enough to provide useful electrical power? -- Transpose mxsmanic and gmail to reach me by e-mail.
