"It looks to me like it was running when it impacted the ground. It probably feathered when the engine shut down."
At first glance the picture of the bent left prop blades makes it look like a spinning, feathered, prop got shoved into the ground. Which doesn't make sense. Are saying Don, that a spinning prop got run into the ground, the blades all bent aft. And then, as the dust was settling, the bent blades went into feather?
It is hard to tell which is the leading edge from the pic. And I can't remember which way tc props rotate. But I could see that.
I didn't realize that it was possible to get that much of the blade into contact with the ground!
