Multi vs. Single Engine Flight
Similarities and Differences
Multi vs. Single Engine Flight
• Proficiency
– Incompletely trained or rusty pilots can fly multi
engine airplanes, but not safely. In normal
operations they would be at least twice safer
flying a single engine airplane.
– This is due to the higher probability of any of the
engines failing in a multi and the consequences of
not being prepared to handle those cases.

Myths
•If an engine fails in a twin, the remaining
engine will only carry you to the scene of
the accident quicker.

Myths
•If an engine fails in a twin, shut down the
remaining engine and crash land. Better
to land right side up, than otherwise.

• Best Response
– 3273 and a half feet Sir
– But that’s with a new airplane and a test pilot
– And, if I start stopping exactly when the
engine fails.
– Besides, it pretty hot today, and my brakes,
tires, and brain are old.
– We better look at the chart and add a little
distance to the 3273 and a half feet!

Accelerate To Stop Distance
Accelerate To Stop Distance
Accelerate-Stop Distance is the runway
required to accelerate to either Vr or Vlof
(as specified by the manufacturer) and,
assuming an engine failure at that instant,
to bring the airplane to a complete stop.
Accelerate To Go Distance
Accelerate-Go Distance is the runway
required to accelerate to either Vr or Vlof
(as specified by the manufacturer) and,
assuming an engine failure at that instant,
to continue the takeoff on the remaining
