Duke B60 Panel

well maybe there are others out there that like the Duke. I got to fly in the right seat of the Duke back when I was in college when a flight instructor of mine was captain on one and he needed a copilot for insurance rates. A very nice plane but a handful when an engine is out if you don't keep a good margin on Vmc.

Hopefully you weren't on it with an engine out

Actually I was on a flight when a turbocharger destroyed itself and we turned around on initial climb out and landed with the bad engine shut down. I was just a newbie pilot so was mostly a spectator. The best part is that they gave me a crisp $50 bill (1973) for each day I flew a trip and that day I was heading home after a 10 minute flight with fifty bucks in my pocket. That made a bigger impression on me than the single engine landing.
