The Skymaster is like flying a single with two engines. If you can get over the awe factor of having six levers in your hands, you'll soon realize it responds like a big single engine. The pitch is heavy, and the aircraft is very stable. Lose an engine, lose some airspeed. Feather the inop engine, and continue your flight. In a Skymaster, an engine-out is not an "emergency", its an inconvenience.
