Hi guys, my comment about the remaining engine taking you to your crash site was meant as a joke (hence smile included) but none of you got it - what's the point of having a 2nd engine then - apologies if I lead the uninformed astray.
Of course gulliBell is right that I am not endorsed on twin engined helicopters - not many of us are as it costs about $4000/hr just to train on a light twin. However, I have been told personally by the guy who pilots the Victoria Police chopper that he'd never fill her tanks up full because they would have to quickly land where an OEI occurred - rather, it's tanks are never more than half-filled so that they can at least limp back to Essendon for repairs in an OEI event. I suppose it's more than just looking at the AUW. Telling, isn't it ?
