Watching GWN news tonight I saw Natalie Forrest report about the incident at Jandakot today. A Beechcraft Baron made an emergency landing with the nose wheel not down and locked.
It had actual footage of the aircraft landing and you could see the nose leg not in place. You could clearly identify it as a Beechcraft Baron and even if you did not know what type of aircraft, you could see that it has 2 engines / 2 propellers.
However Natalie Forrest reported it as being a "single engine aircraft".
A singled engine Baron even though it actually has 2 engines !!!!
Does that mean now that all the hours I have logged in a Baron have to be moved across to the "single engine column" in my logbook ?

At least you will not need a ME CIR to fly one now.
