I doubt it, no rudder to compensate. assymetric, and still flying relative close formation
probably just coincidence in the distance and camera objective/shutter that the closest prop is captured right and others are not..
or his right prop was just a smidgeon rpm slower...than the right
notice second prop is still aaaalmost visible as well.

Had he really lost an Engine, they would not have been taking pic over sea and would have turned back over land.
They are no Navy pilots you know, wet stuff is scary to land or parachute down on.

The right engine is dead and the prop is feathered, see the shadow of the blade on the cowling.
The P-38 was unique in that it had counter rotating props. The outward rotating props help to mitigate the effects of torque and P-factor during engine out.
Over the Aleutians with miles of open ocean, he may not had the fuel/luxury of flying over land to get back to the closest airfield. P-51s over the Pacific flew hundreds of miles single engine over the Pacific to escort B-29s.

Beautiful abandoned miners' cottages in a disused slate quarry in Snowdonia, North Wales. The quarry closed in 1969 due to industry decline and because 170-years of working the site had reaulted in waste tips sliding into the main pit workings.

Exactly !!
I spent many, many years in military aviation. I know a feathered prop when I see one. KNS is correct about the counter rotating props on the P-38.

I always wanted to fly in a OV-1 Mohawk. I was able to fly an OV-10 Bronco at Camp Pendleton, but no luck with the 1.

That is what real torque looks like. It makes an electric motor cringe in fear.

October 12, 1947: Sunday. Glennis is feeling better so Chuck takes her to Pancho's for dinner. They decide to go on a moonlit ride. And on the way back, decide to race back. But someone has closed the gate so Chuck's horse pulls 5 G's turning but Chuck kept going. Youch! He's supposed to attempt to fly the X-1 past the sound barrier in 2 days....!!!!
2nd fr left Col Al Boyd, right front Jack Ridley, Middle back Chuck & Glennis Yeager. That sure does not look much like Poncho's in the Right Stuff movie potraied. It was a drama not a documentary.

There are two people in that photo.

That tractor, a McCormick-Deering 15-30, wasn't introduced until 1921. That caption might be a typo.

If I had to take a guess this is one of those photos where the selfietaker asked someone with photo editing skills to "fix the photo" because of the guy in the background.

They then "fixed" the photo by copying the filter over to the guy rather than removing the guy.

Tara Browne, the heir to the Guinness fortune was the guy who "blew his mind out in a car" in the Beatles song "A Day in the Life" on Dec 18, 1966. He was driving a Lotus Elan supposedly over 100 mph under the influence of drugs and alcohol. John Lennon was a friend of his. His girlfriend Suki Potier claimed that Browne swerved the car to direct the impact away from her to save her life.

“The high flashpoint of the special SR71 fuel brings up a problem. Most jet engines use igniter plugs, nothing more than a very hot spark plug, if you will. Using these igniter plugs they used with the JP-7 and just drowns it out, it won't ignite. Kelly put his engineers to work, and he said, 'OK, gentlemen, how are we going to start this?' They came up with a very unique way. Triethylborane – TEB for short. Each engine has a one-and-a-quarter pint. If I had it in a squirt gun and I squirted it into the atmosphere, it would go Kaboom! – it explodes with contact with the atmosphere. And that's how we started the engines. As the engines rotate, at the right time, it sprays this amount of TEB into the turbine section, which goes kaboom, which in turn lights the engine. When you take the throttles up into the afterburner, it puts this metered amount of TEB in that lights up the JP-7. You get 16 shots for each engine." Rich Graham
SR 71 pilot David Peters comments : An interesting note to this is the transport of it. If we landed away, servicing had to be hauled to our location. The NTSB lists TEB as the following most dangerous material, one step below fissionable nuclear material. The folks that handled this stuff were highly trained and good.

Very cool, thanks for the info. As a young kid the P-38 was one of my favorites planes of that era, but I don't really know much about them. I know I had a small diecast of one about 10 years ago that would probably be from the late 70s. I don't know if I've still got it or not.
