Why is that ?

The PC12 is an impressive aircraft by all accounts but still a single and if your one engine fails you're just in an expensive glider.

I flew some ancient clapped out Barons in another life, single Pilot night freight but I'd still prefer its extra engine compared to your chances in a single across the north sea.
