Yes. Get your control inputs in and hold it on CL, and then you're performing like a light twin. Plenty of time to think.

With both engines running, it flys like a jet...which is to say it goes forward and up a lot faster than a GA prop job, and you cannot remotely level off below 10,000 and stay below 250 kts with climb power applied.
