A very interesting thread... for my tupence if I still had an engine working on a ME type and on the balance of probability of the remaining engine also failing isn't it safer and easier to stick with a tried and tested SE profile and run the aircraft onto a runway rather than decide to go for an auto, which you may not have practiced for a while? I guess thats where the military have the advantage when it comes to not having to worry about trivia, like costs!
I guess there are numerous variables to this argument no least the aircraft & AUM, crew recency, airfield and weather... in this case the crew got home safe...
