The ASRS web site will give you information as to how to submit a query. I
received a great deal of info from my request several months ago, but I had
to send a letter of request. Perhaps that can all be taken care of
electronically now.

Thank you for the below! While I understand the piston aircraft

wonder if NASA's ASRS database has any useful compiled info on this ETOPs
dual engine-out scenario?
