Ladies and Gentlemen

While appreciating the considerable risks of establishing VMCG during certification, (given the requirement to maintain the good engine at full throttle for at least five seconds after the yaw) I have never felt this would be a hairy event in normal ops. because most crews would get all throttles off well before five seconds. They are in a stop situation after all.

So while a stong cross wind from the side you lost the donk could have a very nasty effect so far as the initial yaw rate was concerned, would that not also cue you chop all power even faster?

Please put me straight if I am all wrong on this.
