When eng. failure (at take-off), bigger yaw and roll moment (generally), due to more drag of props.

Be carefull with the use off rudder on jets. See also American Airlines final report.

More autopilot and flight director modes (generally).

More radiation on jets (higher levels).

ETOPS

Speed reduction is slower on jets. Take this into account with your descent planning.


Good luck
