Having had a number of partial engine and full engine failures in twins and a single I do not have the confidence in piston engines to the extent of some here.

The chances are very small but there is still a chance!

Has it stopped me? No but with anything with an element of risk you have to safeguard yourself as best as possible and accept the risk.

I nevertheless Breath easier when over land again and the engine tone goes back to normal
