Twin Commander - Magic of Aero Design (2192 words) |
 | Single engine operation for twin engine aircraft during cruise flight was not a noteworthy item but to start a takeoff from scratch and at full gross weight, complete the takeoff and fly to a distant point with only one engine, was something else again. |
| The faith of the design had been vindicated by this spectacular achievement which was recognized, not as a stunt, but as a vivid demonstration of asymmetric control and responsiveness that was hitherto unmatched in aviation history. |
| The Magic of Aero Design is the story of business aircraft and their use — the story of a man and his dream — the story of aviation — the story of Oklahoma -- the story of free enterprise and the story of business aircraft, its present and its future. |
