I don't doubt that. Down in The Miami freight business, guys would have all sorts of engine failures, smoke, incapacitated crew, etc. I remember no one ever declaring an emergency. Reasons? Company men, I suppose. Funny thing was that these guys would be rewarded by their employers, or were even check airmen. The FAA did zip.
