Richard,
If you ever lose your engine, but it still windmills, pulling the prop
full aft will decrease your sink rate by several hundred feet per minute
and will extend your time and distance to where you will meet terra
firma. Could be a vital asset! I routinely practice dead stick landings
this way. Just something to consider adding to your procedures.
