I personally do it very often but depends on the circumstances. Also not all airplanes behave the same taxying/tight turns on one engine.

You must consider your weight on the day, it has to be a familiar airport so you know where the uphills are and whether you will have to stop (needs a lot of power to get it going again). It can be very challenging at times but...hey, there are not many challenging things left in this bussiness

People have been very embarassed in the past having to call for a tug to rescue them
