hey barit !

that maybe, i do not know all possible designs and so cannot say for sure at all applications. do you have an example where pitch locks are installed in a free turbine design ?

the pt6a definitly does not has any pitch locks, you see it nicely on a normal shutdown- you can leave prop lever full foward and the propeller with nevertheless fully feather when the engine spools down .

best regards !
