Hi Cpt G!

Same with mine before, however, after they bought (another) supplement we can leave the little pointy light on on every takeoff. I believe it has something to do with YD-auto disconnect during eng. failure. Try testing the autofeather system while the YD is on and the engines are off.

What really surprise me with the DH8 is that its newer addition, the Q400, isnīt certified for auto feather use except for TKOF!!!
