Speaking of difficult to handle twins.

In 1939, the Martin Co. responded to a request for a high speed medium
twin engined bomber with a submission that was named the "Marauder"
and designated the 26th such commissioned design, or B-26.

Martin assigned a young aerodynamics engineer to the task of designing
the airplane.

The same guy (Ted Smith ?) who designed the Rockwell/AeroCommander series,
now called the Twin Commander.
