Not sure how the noisy, mighty - and popular on the Nostalgia Forum - Antonov AN-22 does it (and it's too late to be rifling through books right now!).

But - how about the Beriev Be-30 (?), the twin engined transport rather like a mini AN-24. The engines were coupled by a drive shaft, so in the event of one side going silent, the other drove the stationery prop... none of that assymetric nonsense...
