I just got a yoke and I have a question on the prop control where should it be (forward or back) with a single engine plane and it it different for a twin or jets.
Also,how do you work the rich/lean mix?
Thanks,
Chief

The prop control should be all of the way foward for take off, landing, startup and shutdown but you can adjust it in flight as needed to keep the rpms in the green. Your mixture should be leaned above 3,000 ft in a piston plane but it should almost always be all of the way foward in a turboprop.
