Glad everyone appears ok and well done all in what could have been a nasty accident.

VX275, no hard and fast rules, it depends on how she is handling.
Usually, it's not an issue once well above Vmca2 where you have plenty of bernoullis over the ailerons;just make sure you don't bank too far!

I hope it's easily fixable but yes. Something strangely evocative in the pictures.

Does anybody else know if PA474 has ever had a similar incident whilst flying with BBMF?
No doubt the team will be working hard to ensure the beautiful old girl returns to the skies in good order.

Isn't turning towards the dead engine a piloting no no?
She was to have a busy few days too. At least she is at her home base this time. I believe she spent a couple of weeks in Jersey when a Merlin failed several years ago.

Judging by this sequence she had just took off so was probably in the circuit, images show the result.
