Many, many years years ago United did flight testing with Convair to see what would happen if a prop reversed in flight on a CV-440. They had one engine at METO and the other one pulled as far back through the gate as they could. I still remember the summary of the report - the plane was controllable but "the rate of descent never stabilized."
