Narrative:

Aircraft just came out of 'maintenance.' chief pilot asked me to take it around pattern. Right engine feathered itself after takeoff. I was just going around once anyway. 'Tower knew that.' I told tower I had a rudder/feather problem and asked to land 'immediately.' tower was fantastic, landed 1 engine feathered. Felt very safe, because tower and ground responded perfect.
