"I have often wondered as to whether the extra complexity of a twin negates the advantage of having the second donkey."

I always work on the principle that a multi-engined helicopter is only safer when one engine fails. Two engines didn't help the guys in the recent Bond gearbox incident or the S-92 from Cougar.
