An engine and propeller control system (EPECS) of an aircraft includes a propeller (30) with a plurality of blades (110) coupled to an aircraft engine. Each of the blades (110) are coupled to an actuator (111) configured to adjust the blades (110) between a first pitch to produce forward thrust and a second pitch to produce reverse thrust. The EPECS (200) further includes a controller (250) configured to control the actuator (111) to invoke the second pitch in response to receiving a reverse thrust command signal. The controller (250) is configured to alert that the reverse thrust command signal is generated prior to landing the aircraft.
