I wish to publicly apologize to Gordy (and anyone else) if I am causing the cr*p to curdle! It is not my intention.
I am genuinely interested because one day I expect I will leave the Swedish Defence Forces and maybe I will have to join a small company which is operating single engine aircraft and these issue will become relevant to me.
I feel that singles are perfectly safe because of the helicopter's ability to auto-rotate. If the aircraft is flown along safe single engine routes (open spaces below) and at the right height with the right visibility then it is perfectly safe.
