Default Air Force investigating intermittent engine failure on aircraft.

I just learned it is a Navy P-3. Who routinely shutdown one
engine to save on fuel costs (the cheapos).


NOPE!! We shut down one or two engines to extend the patrol
time. Something that is peculiar only to constant speed
turboprop engines.
