A method of braking a rotational air mover portion of an aircraft propulsion system is provided. The method includes: using an electrical device to apply a torque to a propulsion unit driven by a propulsion system of an aircraft, the propulsion unit including a rotational air mover configured to provide thrust for propelling the aircraft, wherein the electrical device is configured to produce electrical energy during the process of applying the torque to the propulsion unit; controlling the electrical device to apply an amount of the torque that is sufficient to cause the rotational air mover to decelerate or to maintain the rotational air mover non-rotational; and directing the electrical energy produced by the electrical device to an aircraft component.
