Twin engine piston aircraft have a higher death rate than single engine.
Double trouble.


A statement with zero credibility without facts and breakdowns by model, conditions under which crash took place, etc.

For instance twins are regularly flown in weather that a single engine pilot would avoid. Dark nights, rain, snow, approaches at night in very low ceilings and visibility...and even a little ice.

Per hour of operation light twin engine planes have a much worse accident rate than single engine planes.
