Smile light twins

Tinstaafl.......Well said.
How to survive a light twin public airservice job using several types of piston twins, small and bush type runways, and fatigue ?........perhaps this:-

Max Power.....all levers foward.
Climb............get that airspeed correct, FLY THE PLANE !
Flaps/cowls...get it correct
Gear............up...unless your world is paved !
Identiffy.......which one is duff ?????
Verify..........get it correct,retard the throttle
Feather....... FLY THE PLANE !

With luck, you'll fly it out straight ahead and gain a few hundred feet
before your good engine overheats.

Most times you'll fly it into a flat spot and tell them that you did all that you could do. Good luck. Extra good luck!!!!!
