Single Engine Taxi

[jchronic]

Greetings All:

Brand new to the Forum and looking forward to learning much more about this airplane from the experience evident on this site. I've been flying both a 336 and a 337 on marine mammal surveys for about a year, and thoroughly enjoy the airplanes.

Question: Having a minor disagreement with my flying partner; he gets uncomfortable when I shut down the front engine and taxi on the rear only. Is there any reason why this is unsafe and/or a bad practice?

Thanks-
Joe C.
