 | The second
type of turboprop engine configuration is the fixed shaft type. |
| As you can see
air flows through it same as the direction of flight. One would assume
that this would be slightly more efficient because the relative air
flow is the same as the direction of flight. |

| Note: both
types of engines benefit from Ram Air Effect. That is air being pushed
in by the prop and forward motion. |
