'Q' I like the way you think, but am sure the ATO's would have plenty of other tricks up their sleeves
Then again under test conditions & in VMC he/they might fail an engine just after turning inbound on an NDB anyway to practise the very thing as to why I wouldn't be flyng one in the first place, an off airport ldg. This scenario plus many others is the exact reason it's too dangerous in my mind, it takes 1 accident like the above & then we will see you goes running for cover! It's only a matter of time.
Anyway back to the original posters subject.........."old medical planes putting patients lives at risk"................. it's almost laughable that statement if they even consider using SE planes but more laughable is the fact that the statement is referring to twin turbinesl!!
