Whoever tells you that twins can happily fly on one engine is talking b******s or has balls of steel
Are those who are saying that or similar on this thread the same who shot down, with huge scorn, those of us who think that operating twins over the ocean is not such a bright idea, whatever the statistics say, when the subject was addressed some time ago in a pprune thread?[/
Err..no in a word. And my original post wasn't intended to shoot anyone in particular down but merely to add force to the statement about losing an engine. I had an engine failure on a heavily loaded twin out of an airport with sufficient terrain and a required climb gradient that put grey hairs on my head in seconds. It wasn't a nice scene. As for flying over oceans, sure no problem as long as you remember your aircraft limitations and always have an "out" if it alls goes t*ts up.
