We have twin Lehmans (120) but only operated 1 engine at a time (changed
with each 6hr shift change).

Leonard, What was your Gal/nm difference between running on both engines  and
just one?

Also, when on one engine did you lock the "unused shaft"?  If so,  how and in
any particular angle such as the prop lined up with the  struts?

Thanks,

Vince
