Analyze and correct common errors related to this Task.

Bottom line

No change in performance when the suspected throttle is retarded is verification that the correct engine has been identified as failed. A windmilling propeller, in many cases, has given the improperly trained multiengine pilot the mistaken perception that the engine is still developing useful thrust, resulting in a psychological reluctance to feather, as feathering results in cessation of propeller rotation.
