Turbo props rarely break whereas a lot of piston twins could barely hold altitude on a single engine so the idea of a having a backup engine for safety was more in peoples heads than anything else. Which means a lot of the piston twins in games model older designs with steam gauges from the heyday of fast light piston twins. Most pilots I know say that the purpose of the second engine is to fly you to the scene of the crash.

A properly planned flight in a twin flown by a competent pilot results in an airplane capable of climbing out on one engine should the need arise.

What does this mean and how do I make sure this is done? Stan

Well that does depend a lot on the altitude of the airfield and what aircraft you are flying. The single engine service ceiling of a PA-44-180 Seminole is down around 4000 feet density altitude, meaning serious trouble with an engine out if taking off somewhere like Telluride at just over 9000 feet. On the other hand a PA-34-220T Seneca V has a very respectable single engine service ceiling of 16500 feet and is unlikely to see you getting in trouble regardless of the airfield.

Either payware or freeware. total seat of 6 - 12 etc. Anything out there? Depending on your definition of "glass", the C414 with dual TDS GTN 750NXi's might actually fit the bill.. It clearly does not have the G1000 or 3000, but the GTNs make up for that.. very nice plane, and getting better every week as development on it continues.. 🙂 Edited April 25, 20224 yr by Bert Pieke Bert

I remember when I thought CFIs were automatically good pilots. No commentary on your friends, but I've since learned this isn't the case.
