One thing I've never heard talked about anywhere is reducing power on the live engine, if the other has failed, and you find yourself playing with Vmca. Much is written about handling engine failures in the take off scenario, but not this particular aspect. It was SOP on some WWII types, P-38 for example. It is addressed in the King Air emergency procedures section, reduce power on the live, but I wonder how many King Air drivers get to practice in a sim? Melbourne does have one.
