Please excuse me if I'm confused.
But I wonder about the difference between a constant speed prop and fixed pitch prop if my engine dies and I need to glide to a landing. I know some twin props are auto-feathering if the engine dies. What happens on a single with a dead engine (and no oil pressure)? Will the constant speed prop give me more or less drag than a fixed pitch prop?
