Ernest Christley asks:
Some guys on the flyrotary list have be batting around ideas on how to
determine if the prop on a pusher is windmilling.
On my COZY MKIV, I look at my tachometer. I've had the engine quit on
me in a test, but it was still spinning, and the tach was registering.
Assuming the prop bolts haven't come off, the prop will be spinning if
the tach is indicating RPM.
Everybody's got a tach, right? Is that not sufficient?
