One of the great features of the Aero Commander is its low VMC of 65 knots compared with other light twins. This is partly due the the very large vertical stabilizer. Mine was extremely easy to fly on one engine.
The problem is, and not unique to the Aero Commander, that very few pilots are prepared to fly the aircraft at low airspeed and low altitude single-engine unannounced.
The multi-engine training syllabus is all about single-engine operations. Still, people are caught by surprise and get killed before they recognize the dead engine.
When pilots fly with me they know that I'm going to pull an engine and they're prepared for it. They know I'll fail an engine on departure. They are not always prepared when I only pull it back part way, say to zero thrust on approach. They may not notice and end up too slow. Tower says "go around" and they're in trouble.
