Q

When the blue propeller

control handle is moved aft

A

Oil pressure is reduced by the propeller governor.
This allows a nitrogen-charged cylinder, spring, and centrifugal counterweights
to drive the blades to a high pitch–low RPM (feathered) position.

Q

Explain Spiraling Slip Stream

A

On the left engine the stream is hitting the rudder counter reacting the yaw to the right. On the right engine the spiral is moving away from the rudder so it doesn’t counter the yaw to the left.

87
Q

Explain Torque

A

On the Left engine the plane is rolling right because of the thrust, but because the blade is turning clockwise the torque is going counter clockwise so it is countering the roll.
On the Right engine the plane is rolling left because of the thrust, but because the the blade is turning clockwise the torque is going counter clockwise so there is no counter to the roll
