You have to understand, that there are some places you just can't ''land immediately''. Some places you crash, and then you fall the 50 odd meters to the ground after going through the canopy.... in those cases I'd rather punch off the load (if externally) and pull back on the power and RTB, rather than trying the above mentioned scenario.
If the client are willing to pay the extra for the twin and get less efficiency, well what's wrong with that??:roll eyes:
That's fair, rainforest is properly bad, but twins are not imune from "land immediately" either, as we have seen frequently recently.
