I just have to ask. In what way is it a bad analogy?

Possibly you are thinking the freewheeling prop would
somehow generate
some forward motion. Not likely or you would have a
perpetual motion
machine.

Those with an understanding of basic physics will
understand my point. It's
clear that a detailed explanation to you would be
pointless, as you would
have figured it out by now if you had the basic
understanding.

Please give it a try anyway ... please ... ;-) ... I'm
curious, but not a physicist ...
