Can anyone explain why the TQ is indicated spiking up and down on the FDR when the propellers are feathered? The FDR gives the impression the TQ spikes are quite pronounced but I can't think of why if would do this. I used to fly Dash 8's and Dornier 328's but I don't remember the torque doing his when the prop was feathered (although it was a long time ago so my memory is stretched).

Jets are indeed way easier to fly when it comes to engine problems. I forgot how tricky an unscheduled auto feather could be.
