If one engine quits you always have enough power to make it to the crash site.

You get to hear your wife say "how much was that engine" in stereo.

Two needle valves to play with.

Two holes in the flying field when you lose it.

Get the wrong prop or engine and you just made the same mistake twice.

Bigger prop on one and do circles without that rudder.

Twice the chance of sticking your finger through the prop. And you can burn more fuel than the other guy with the single.

twice the chance of a deadstick

If one engine quits it will test the the rudder hinges to maximum holding power. [:-]

Have the throttles on separate channels and use differential power to steer while taxiing... don't need no stinkin' steerable tail wheel!

one more propeller to drag the plane into the water

Makes your plane LOUDER.

Flick starting a twin is better than 2 hours at the gym. Pity only one arm has biceps like rockmellons "mental note to oneself, check electric starter battery the night before"

The engine is not the first thing that hits the ground.
If it does crash, you can replace it with TWO airplanes, since you have two engines.

Spend more money than the guys with only 1.

Empties your wallet twice as fast

Helps to support the fuel manufacturers!!!!!!

Give the twin pilot the humility to not laugh at the Newbies shaking........kind of like you were with that new twin ten minutes ago and the heart rate is just now droping!!

Some people like four times the trouble for only one extra engine......cannot imagine four or more!!!

great source of arobic ecxersie (doctors say you should elevate your heartrate for 20 min right?? think thats what they had in mind??)

With a twin, there is a whole new area of expertise that people who have never flown a twin can share with you as you are pre-flighting, attempting to start up, taxi-ing and flying. Add flaps, and now there is a veritable fount of wisdom coming your way!!

Sympathetic vibration really does show up poor glue joints, linkages unsupported snakes etc.
Double the noise really drowns out those grumpy members who reckon "it will never fly!"
Multiple lacerations on both sides of your hands after a prop strike.
More smoke!!!!

twice as much pulling you back down when your rx dies

I like twins, especially ones from Norway with big engines up front and nice symetrical horizontal stabilizers.

lol, ...inuendo?

Didn't Figure The Single Engine Crash Had That good Of Effect.

Wanted speed and could'nt afford the Jet.

Better momentum for dead stick Landings (crashes) Same thing in my book. lol

You get 2 props flying at you.

twice as much exhaust residue to clean off the plane at the end of the day

Actually a low, sweet in tune flyby, even the huble little Twinstar on OS .25s makes every one on the flight line

Absolutely GREEN with [size=3]ENVY[/size]!
