"While in the states on a Metro III course I heared about drug runners using Metro's to ship from South America into the states and extending there range by shuting down one and cruising on the other. This results in a 50% reduction in fuel flow and about a 25% loss of speed. "
Wow. If you can get that much more range by shutting down just one engine, imagine the possibilities with a DC8 shutting down 3!!
