No question, takeoff is a critical time in twins. Fatal accident

east of Cleveland. Pilot was reported to be trying to turn back to
field following some sort of failure soon after taking off.

Media reports should the last place to pick out words to take
literally. I live 3/4 from this airport and am based there. Based on
winds, crash site, and a couple other factors, he was likely well
underway before reporting a problem. One media outlet here reported,
per a witness, that the plane was on fire before impact. If that's
accurate, it further doesn't sound like a problem more peculiar to
twins.
