Just had an enjoyable spin in the Andover from haines to yakutat, and after an instrument landing, I got half way around a turn to get to the apron, when the A/C stopped and no movement was possible. I pushed back a bit, which was OK, but, after hitting shift-P again, no movement even with the throttles on full.
have I missed something in the manual....?

Hi Jim..
Yes mate.. you probably landed heavier than you thought and have feather the props. Heavy landings will trip the generators and a consequence is.. the prop's will feather ;-)

Cheers Dave :tab:
Mind you, I thought I had a rather soft TD, although I was at 90% + fuel...!

Hi Jim..
No probs mate. Fraser and I have talked about this often. How many times have you landed, sure it's been an absolute greaser only to find FlyNET has reported -92 or -115 :o

Re: Taxiing probs....

Sounds about right!
Need to get my type rating for the Andover ;-) - with a little more practice. I've been playing around PAJN at dusk, with 'Building storms' and managed to get online in the turbulence only to cross the threshold about 100ft too high, resulting in a soft touchdown, bounce, and then a bump down with the port wing low.
