will stop the prop at normal glide speeds.

Never had an engine failure, have you?

Also just shutting off the engine doesn't stop the prop from
windmilling. To do that you have to have a prop that fully feathers
and even then they don't always stop fully.


As a matter of fact I have. In a 172 and the prop continued to spin until I
was on the ground and didn't stop until the AS was about 45.
