I'll be interested to hear how you get on. I have seriously looked at operating a light twin (I currently operate a turbo arrow). However, here in EASAland, the maintenance costs for the light twin are at least twice as much as they are for a single, as recently confirmed by my engineer/CAMO (reckon on £10,000 pa in a good year) and unless you have uber-deep pockets, the minimal extra utility of the twin simply can't be justified. In my view, the safety argument is similarly opaque, so I will be sticking with a SEP for the foreseeable future.
