Ah, FD, but the reason you don't go around shutting down perfectly good engines on a twin is because it's an inherently dangerous thing to do! In the perfect world
all emergency training in
all twins would be done in a proper simulator, as required in the States if you want to get twin insurance you can afford. Going down to 50ft, no real problem, as long as you don't shut it all down for real.
Sorry for missing the other thread, I drift in and out, and every time I am foolish enough to post on here I am 100% secure in the knowledge that it's been said before
, and probably recently.
I think taildraggers don't nose over as easily as a tricycle, so are safer in those ugly places you have to land out of necessity as opposed to choice. I have no figures to back me up, but it just feels right to say it...
