Good vibs,

Standby for the 'defenders of single-engine ops' who fail to see that it is not the number of engines but the fact that singles are invariably VFR. That means that they will be scrabbling around under the cloud at night and crash into hills or wires, or get disoriented.

EMS is a job for twin/IFR machines but it just doesn't seem to be catching on in the US where these accidents will continue to happen.
