Narrative:
#1 engine/propeller went into automatic-feather at 100 percent torque, 100 ft AGL. Captain was non-flying pilot. I realized the problem and turned the system off. Engine indications returned to normal we did not shut the engine down. Made left traffic and landed runway 6L. No other incidents noted or observed. First officer did an outstanding job flying while I trouble shot the problem!
