If one engine stops in flight , you don't have the problem with the aircraft pulling to one side and no asymmetric thrust as in a conventional twin.

I WANT ONE!

It's probably faster. Plus if you lose one engine at least you wouldn't have to dead stick it.

I'll bet that thing steps!!

I'd like to ask one simple question - why? I'm not being sarcastic, I'm just wondering what benefit there is in having 2 engines. I just see too many cons: Extra weight, double maintenance, double the fuel and complexity, louder, etc etc etc. Is there any advantage that outweighs the cons?

Safety ! Flying in a mountais area without any emergency landing area, two engines are better then one. Life has not price !

Good answer, I guess two engines let you take that those two-stroke engines further beyond the airport pattern. >:)

Moreover I have a short private airstip. With 130 Hp It is an helicopter. See videos. Then it is matter of God. I had C337, PA34, I flow Citation and D328; same risk as this twin ultralight
