Actually, from a standing start, the cocked nose wheel and
one engine act like a chock and you can't even move in a Baron or Duke. I have never tried it in other makes or models, except the King Airs and 1900's which taxi just fine on one engine. I have not tried this either, taxi in a fast circle as large as possible diameter, cut the power, straighten out while still rolling and bring in the power to keep some speed up in order to taxi. I much prefer to just coast off the runway, stop when clear and call for a tow. Done that a half dozen times at home base and while on trips a couple of times. Hey, why strain the airplane, line guys need work too.
