I could not agree more Centaurus!
This (simulated engine failure on take-off) is supposedly a mandatory item on MEPL tests in the UK but is not something that I do - it's a bit like practise die'ing (sp?). If an engine genuinely fails during the take-off roll then any damage is a consequence of the failure and is in the "sh1t happens" category. The training risk can be totally removed by dealing with this by discussion.
Twins seem to crash for a variety of reasons: I believe there was a Seneca fatal in the US a couple of years ago where part of the (male) pilot's anatomy was found in the (female) pax's mouth?
Cause or effect?
Perhaps this should be a test item too
