Failure:
It’s kind of hard to write about experiences you have in an aircraft when you haven’t been flying. So I’ll just leave you with picture. This is during a shutdown of the left engine. And have it feathered. For those who don’t know about feathered propellers, this is where you angle the blade of the propeller so it produces less drag on the airplane and or wear on the engine. And it really strengthens whatever leg you are using to counter the forces wanting to turn the airplane towards the bad engine. I will leave you with the immediate action items during an engine failure:

Maintain directional control

Pitch for blue line (a line on the airspeed indicator denoting the min. controllable airspeed of the aircraft.)

Quadrants full forward (mixture, props, and throttles)

Verify flaps up, gear up.

Fix or feather.

Note the feathered prop in photo.
