When going through multi-engine flight training, a pilot was once told "when one engine fails on a twin-engine aircraft, the second engine will suffice long enough to get you to the scene of the crash."
Really? This must put a lot of confidence in a new pilot flying a 15 year old twin-engine prop.
This brings to question what state of disrepair the fleet of twin engine aircraft are in if pilots need to be told this as part of their basic training...hmm... well, job security for fire departments and EMS at the very least :-)
