As they say, a second engine is there to take you to the crash site. Then "they" aren't worth listening to.

The fact that you can't do that on a casual basis, and get away with it as easily as you can with a 172, seems to escape some people. That sort of thinking is the inspiration for the Darwin awards. At least the comment had something to do with aviation -- a nice change from the rest of the thread. Jack |

![]() "Jack" wrote 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 -- Jim in NC |
