engine failures after Take off

Recommended Posts

A few months ago I bought the 31T Chieftain and constantly had 1 engine failure within 5 mins after take off

then the second engine failed  - checked the usual fuel pump - fuel on etc - eventually gave up the aircraft

Yesterday in the big sale - I bought the PA42T version - familiarized myself with all controls etc. - no problems

with engine starts - took off and got engine failures on both

Used the software engine starts - and noted position of switches  in line with startup procedures - took off  -

both engines failed again 

I don't have any other probs with all my many Carenado aircraft - including Turbos - eg Aero Commander 690

so what am i doing wrong on this new aircraft that repeats what I must have done - or failed to do - on the PA 31T

Many years ago I did have a PPL on twins but never came up against a Turbo engine
