In Part 23 land, we have a saying: You don't have to worry when an engine fails on a twin, because the other engine is there to take you to the crash site.
My favorite Skymaster story:
I used to do some flying out of Norman Oklahoma. There were a couple of pilot training schools in the area, and one in particular had a large number of foreign students.
One day when the pattern was full, the controller was trying to identify which plane was being flown by a foreigner who was making difficult-to-understand radio contact.
The controller radios: Aircraft calling Norman Tower, are you the Skymaster inbound?
The student radios back: My instructor says that I am doing well, but I do not think I am ready to be the sky master.
I wonder if sky master one step below sky King??
