The twin accident statistics are one thing.
An individual's skills, judgement and training
will cause a specific outcome that may or may
not follow the statistics.

true...i have heard it stated when a engine goes out in a
single...there is no doubt you are landing soon...in a
twin, the challenge is to keep it flying one one.....

You're right. Engines rarely become loose.

The problem with that is there's no data concerning engine outs where
the pilot lands successfully.
