Also, the hero worship for the pilot is rather cynical and opportunistic. She didn’t do anything extraordinary. Her aircraft was not on fire, all onboard systems worked, the plane was aerodynamic sound, and one engine out of two was running normally. There is no asymmetrical lift. Stall speed is not impaired, maneuverability is only minimally impaired. It is rudimentary airmanship to land the aircraft in this condition. You can’t get a multi-engine private pilot license without demonstrating the ability to handle the situation.
