Just wondering, since the thread keeps coming back to one engine or two, safety, and especially the media, lets just buy new twins and shut one engine down, day or night and even on revenue flights, screw the regs. We can do it because it is training that 'has to be done sometime'. We will save on fuel and component time. "It's not dodgy it is just economics". Then we can put in a bid that will be lower than the RFDS and get the contract. "And by the way, even though we have CAR 217 we are not a training comapny".

Excuse my ramblings, but if there were such a company, I think there is, legal or not they may just be a formidable force in future Air Ambo/ Airmedical contracts.

Safety is not the only potential victim of cost cutting, ethics can be precariously positioned as well.
