Which is better when you look at single-engine vs twin-engine helicopters?
Both can carry multiple passengers (4 to 5 passengers for single-engine machines and 4 to 6 on twin engines) and are some of the best options for accessing remote destinations but what is the difference?
One of the major difference is pricing. Most commonly, single-engine helicopters are smaller in size and consequently have a smaller fuel consumption.
Twin Engine Helicopter generally has more sophisticated avionics such as an auto-pilot, terrain awareness, and weather radar, which can add to safety.
