Narrative:

We had to reject a takeoff due to the auto-feather not arming. This aircraft has for the past month had a rejected takeoff and/or a failed auto-feather test on an almost daily basis. Yet this aircraft keeps getting signed off for revenue service. This is solely a management/maintenance issue.
