There may still be asymmetric drag for a myriad of reasons ( windmilling vs feather) but that’s not Vmc.
If you sense a loss of control take away the asymmetric thrust. It’s better to have a controlled off airport landing then a Vmc loss of directional control.
Reduce power on the ‘working’ side to regain control, this can mean reducing power on just the outboard or on both.If that engine explosion destroyed hydraulic lines and flight control rods or cables and pulleys then they may have lost all roll control.
Have had a couple of misadventures and this is true.
If the aircraft is flying ex-engines, it will keep flying until it runs out of airspeed/altitude (if it still has wings).
without those, you’’ll likely need a better pilot than me (or an in with mssrs
Martin and Baker)
