411A, knew a guy that was trying to beat a thunderstorm into KPIT one day, and landed the F-27 with the HP cocks in the fuel on position instead of cruise lock out. What he didn't notice was that both props had hung on the cruise pitch locks. The TGT's got up over 1000 degrees, and both engines seized. You could chin yourself on the props.
