The PA31 on the other hand will be going down in these conditions. The PA31 was only ever required to achieve 1% climb gradient on one engine in ISA at MTOW. This is about 106 fpm at blue line with a feathered engine. Someone only has to fart on their seat and she will lose that rather quickly. Never mind thermals or incorrect technique or the temperature actually being greater than 15 degrees
Thankyou. The #2 engine merely is there for an uncontrolled crash at the landing site.

PLEASE to the OP consider a 208
