How to perform the propeller governor check of an engine, properly?
According to the engine operator´s manual, I have to move propellers control toward low RPM position and observe tachometer. Engine speed should decrease to minimum governing speed (200-300 RPM drop).
It also says that to test the ¨feather¨ observe a 300 RPM drop below minimum governing RPM.
What does mean ¨Minimum Governing Speed¨? or wich is this minimun governing speed in RPM?
