You can feather the prop on a PT6 free-turbine engine and
this is a normal training and testing procedure. You do
this at idle or very low power settings. On a piston
engine, feathering the prop stops rotation, so the engine
quits.

On a PC game, the electrons stop flowing?

BTW: My kids got me MSFS X for my B-day. I honestly haven't had the
time to install it. However, my son and I played JetFighter IV
yesterday. Much more fun than MSFS. Not much of a simulator but its fun
learning how to use the different types of air-to-air missles and
air-to-ground bombs/missles/etc. The tactical avionics seems pretty
realistic although I don't have much comparison. The "fire and forget"
missles are much easier than the dumb bombs,.
