We tend to taxi out on the front engine only if we expect a long delay.
We arrive (to the line person) using only the rear engine. This is a short run on the rear only and is for the protection of thr line person. (Oh, by the way... they sometimes look at you a little funny when you shut it down a long ways away from them. We have had the lineman turn around and walk away--- then suddenly realize that you are still moving - and without a front prop turning)
