    Are you flyboy? Or this some commonality that comes with puppy-mill training?

      My zero hours in the Duke tell me that engine-out-at-takeoff is a widespread problem in ALL light twins, not just specific ones, and that it's probably killed a lot more people than DCAS on the 737-MINlav.

        But, to repeat: "While the Duke shares the delightful handling of the Beech line, should pilots have the joy of single-engine operation, they will be up against the highest rudder-force of any piston twin – 150 pounds at Vmc – which happens to be the maximum the FAA allows."

        So that could play a factor, eh?

        And if you put your Vr below your Vmc I guess all the rudder force in the world isn't going to save you. (I think 100-130kts is normal Vr here?)
