Comment on Can someone explain to me how a ventilation fan can suck LESS when on high compared to low?
AnAustralianPhotographer@lemmy.world 22 hours agoThat could happen with propellors that have Constant Speet Units. (Propellor pitch is able to be changed) The act is called ‘feathering’ . This can happen on multi engine aircraft and reduce the drag of the side with the failed engine. Cheaper propellors are fixed pitch and no means exist to change them.

Constant Speed is probably what I was thinking of. And speaking of multi engine failure, you’ve just reminded me of the demise of TransAsia Airways Flight 235 where the right engine feathered itself erroneous, but then the crew misdiagnosed the situation and shut down the left engine. Mentour Pilot made a video on that particular accident.
