In-Flight Shutdowns

I know of no multi-engined aeroplane in service on which an in-flight engine shutdown is prohibited. I also believe that there is no barrier to shutting down an engine as a precautionary measure and...

Taxi C130

Yes, you are.

Guppy, no surprise to read your response. If you are too embarrassed to concede here you may have been wrong too, even just once, why not PM me with a concession and your C130 experience as a pilot,...

Guppy is WRONG
