Roger is an unknown quantity at this point
I suppose it goes without saying that if you have a 3 engine plane, you are 3 times more likely to have an engine failure ?

The point is: Keep your plane loaded correctly so if you lose an engine you maximize your chances of landing safely, stay current on single engine out procedures, and fly with much more confidence in a 337 than virtually any non-turbine produced.

Sure, it may not meet the mission profile for everyone, or circumstance. But there is really only one aircraft that I would trust my family in. Period !

p.s. No Mods except VG's !

1700 lb useful load

My humble opinion is that the Skymaster useful load is one of its best features. My '77 337G is non-pressurized and normally aspirated and the useful load is just under 1700 lbs. Even full fuel, it hard to overload. I love this airplane!
