JEM, runway30, Mungo - yep you guys know it, the crash of VP-BBK. Glad you guys seem to know what your talking about.

Report, for anyone is interested:

The general King Air community also believe that it could have also been a factor in the Wichita FSI crash, however the NTSB doesn't comment on that. Both engines were functional though according to the investigation.

In both of the above it was the LH engine.


Once again, this is not implying anything in regards to the Essendon crash. I just thought it wasn't a bad time to mention the phenomenon and hopefully someone might learn.



Hammerstan, not sure what your getting at but some VERY basic sums you'd be under MTOW. There's not much point me putting made up figures here as it serves no purpose.
As for if they were all sitting on the left, yeah nah, not an issue.
