De Havilland Inc. is proposing a new airworthiness directive to amend the flight manual for its DHC-6-1, DHC-6-100, DHC-6-200, and DHC-6-300 airplanes to prevent loss of control or engine overspeed when the power levers are positioned aft of the flight idle stop during flight, following numerous incidents and documented accidents involving turboprop engines.
