Then "they" aren't worth listening to. One guess why the safety record of
twin-engine light planes isn't better...


Agreed. I forgot the smiley! g


The cost of maintaining and operating a twin, along with the absurd
insurance rates, mean that the only ones operating twins are people with a
good bit of money to throw around. If they have that money, those that have
to work for it are too busy (possibly)to keep current and do recurrent
training, and get in over their heads.

That's my theory, anyway! g
