Like I said, it's been a long time, but I'm pretty sure the F27 didn't have autofeather, and it certainly didn't have a yaw-damper. My comment about glass was merely to observe that these guys were able to "think outside the box",and I can't see where Pailot77 is coming from regarding SOPs. I don't think "total loss of the front half of the engine" is covered by the checklist.
