pontius...colleagues in high regard...I am a realist...if it can go wrong, it will...too many ''incidents'' of less than perfect airmanship
as to assymetric thrust...if you don't have it in your bag of tricks woe to you if you are in a sioux city situation or a rudder hardover and out of options, or otherwise faced with something unusual
and using a bit of assymetric thrust, whether in the manual or not (it does say that the manual is for an experienced pilot) on a crosswind landing, allows for a reserve of controlability.
ahhhh...those across the pond...hmmmm
