I think the implication there is sort of operational, that flying in open water, when have an engine failure, flying with two engines likely presents more problems.
Not really my discipline. I don't know how long a twin engine plane is expected to be able to fly on one engine, or under what sort of envelope.
- meepmorp 5y agoIt's also a twin engine aircraft.
- gimmeThaBeet 5y agoI assumed the implication of the OC was that 4 engines was the undisputed standard for long flights over open water, which would be kind of true until like, the early 80s.
