Far be it for me to agree with crab, because you know I'm Mr. Live Free & Die, fly a single, fly a Robinson, we are all big boys and girls, etc., etc., but in this case I have to say it doesn't make a lot of sense, if you do have a twin, to train in a regime where OEI performance is limited. When a single is what you've got well, it's what you've got. No getting around it. But in this case it doesn't make sense. Especially in a public machine, where money is not as big an object as it is for a private machine. Spend the ferry time to go somewhere lower/cooler, etc.

On the other hand it's still funny how everyone's risk envelope is so different. Here I am agreeing with crab about this, but not about something like auto's to grass. How much of that is how you were trained, how you operated and how much contempt familiarity bred? And how much is pure science, engineering and statistics? Always a good discussion
