Imagine if one had augered in with a dozen on board

We routinely did local with folk in the back with pax configured aircraft.

However, I sometimes think back to my Electra endorsement with trepidation ..

(a) did the lot at night, including all the engine failures

(b) no seats in the back so we all stood around in the cockpit sort of hanging on to whatever makeshift handgrips were available

However the man running the show did demo a three point turn on the taxiway and that was pretty neat ..
