NTSB Report Reveals Incongruity in King Air Crash
The pilot said that the autofeather system feathered the right propeller, but could not recall feathering the left engine.

On August 1 at about 9:15 p.m. local time, a Beech King Air C90B lost engine power while cruising in VMC and crash landed near Georgetown, Ky., some 80 miles short of its Part 91 IFR flight-planned destination of Somerset, Ky. According to the NTSB’s preliminary report, the pilot said that when a fuel crossfeed light illuminated, he reset the indication and the right engine lost power.
