result in an engine overspeed.
Selection of too coarse a propeller pitch may result in the engine being
unable to maintain the desired engine speed, even at full throttle.

fine pitch limit, full power from the engine/propeller combination may
not be available at low speeds. Consideration should be given to this
during approach and landing.
