Ditto what freezingflyboy said. I've got 380+ Dual given in the seminole including flying in TX and FL in hot weather. Standard procedure we taught for engine failure after GS intercept, identify, verify, feather. If you start the full MPT, flaps up, gear up, you've just taken up your gear right before landing, leaving a potential belly landing.

We stressed that after passing FAF on your descent, identify, verify, feather. No need for the rest. Just follow the golden rule number one in all situations, fly the plane. If you're thinking and not losing your head, no need to jump into a rote robot drone. Just consider the situation for a second, realize you're descending on final, feather the engine, and land the plane.
